Zach Bryan - Ninth Cloud

Look at me, so damaged and destroyed
With this world's plans and its ploys to take me out
I'm on a highway directly to the moon
With no plans on stopping soon, I'm leaving town

Them Christians are talking so often of coffins
No Heaven's could top this moment now

My foot out the window and my flask halfway full
I may have to pull over soon
I can't afford a motel, but the floorboards will work well
I'll sleep there 'til tomorrow afternoon
Then I'll get on the road again, had another chance at fittin' in
But fittin' in to kids like me is dyin'
But I know when I'm with you
After one shot or twenty-two and a cigarette, I'll feel like I'm flying

Them Christians are talking so often of coffins
No Heaven's could top this moment now
I've searched and I've found to get to that ninth cloud
You must trek through some dark and troubled ground
So may we all
Just once or twice, once in this life, just look around
'Cause usually I'm a wreck
But the hard times were just a step to get where I am on this ninth cloud

And we're singing, feeling good again
Just passed 3:04 AM
I'm talking like the sun'll never rise
But the sun will crest the trees and bring this devil to his knees
As it outlines the silver in these skies

Them Christians are talking so often of coffins
No Heaven's could top this moment now
I've searched and I've found to get to that ninth cloud
You must trek through some dark and troubled grounds
So may we all
Just once or twice, once in this life, just look around
'Cause usually I'm a wreck
But the hard times were just a step to get where I am on this ninth cloud

Look at me, so damaged and destroyed
With this world's plans and its ploys to take me out
I'm on a highway directly to the moon
With no plans on stopping soon, I'm leaving town
