    Lyrics:
    Pushing past the limit
    Trippin' on hallucinogenics
    My cigarette burnt my finger
    'Cause I forgot I lit it
    Rippin' with my sinners
    'Cause fuck it, man, I ain't no beginner
    And then I crawled back to the life
    That I said I wouldn't live in
    'Cause I just couldn't open up
    I'm always shiftin'
    Go find yourself a man
    Who's strong and tall and Christian
    Pushing past the limit
    Trippin' on hallucinogenics
    My cigarette burnt my finger
    'Cause I forgot I lit it
    Drunken in Seattle
    Two more Xans and without a paddle
    I don't remember your face
    Or your hair, or your name, or your smile
    'Cause I just couldn't open up
    I'm always shiftin'
    Go find yourself a man
    Who's strong and tall and Christian
    Pushing past the limit
    Trippin' on hallucinogenics
    And then I crawled back to the life
    That I said I wouldn't live in
    'Cause I carried on like the wayward son
    And now through and through, I've come undone
    And now I am just but the wayward man
    What with my bloodshot eyes and my shaky hand
    'Cause I carried on like the wayward son
    And now through and through, I've come undone
    And now I am just but the wayward man
    What with my bloodshot eyes and my shaky hand
    Pushing past the limit
    Trippin' on hallucinogenics
    My cigarette burnt my finger
    'Cause I forgot I lit it

    [Chorus]
    Pushing past the limit

    My cigarette burnt my finger
    'Cause I forgot I lit it
    [Verse 1]
    Ripping with my sinners

    And then I crawled back to the life that I said I wouldn't live in

    To both ends without a paddle
    I don't remember your face or your hair or your name or your smile

    Now through and through I have come undone
    And now I am just but the wayward man

    'Cause I carried on like the wayward son
    And now through and through I have come undone
    And now I am just but the wayward man
    What with my bloodshot eyes and my shaky hands

      I think it's a metaphor at the end...the door opens and he seems to "wake up" and walks out of the door (the dark place). We all have that moment...alone ...sad..scared...the way ward son....and then someone/something opens the door. And we snap back to reality from our thoughts and anguish. It's hard. It's a dark place. But wait for the door to open.

    Nothing gives me chills like this bridge. That second wayward son makes something like literally loosen in my chest. I remember you played it first at your Chicago show with betcha and it just immediately made me cry. Do you ever find yourself getting emotional on stage? Your songs feel like such catharsis- I can’t imagine having to perform them night after night. Is it draining or healing in a way?

    Pushing past the limit
    Tripping on hallucinogenics
    My cigarette burnt my finger
    Cause I forgot I lit it
    Ripping with my sinners
    Cause fuck it, man, I ain't no beginner
    And then I crawled back to the life
    That I said I wouldn't living
    Cause I just couldn't open up
    I'm always shifting
    Go find yourself a man
    Who's strong and tall and christian
    Pushing past the limit
    Tripping on hallucinogenics
    My cigarette burnt my finger
    Cause I forgot I lit it
    Drunken in Seattle
    Two more Xans and without a paddle
    I don't remember your face
    Or your hair, or your name, or your smile
    Cause I just couldn't open up
    I'm always shifting
    Go find yourself a man
    Who's strong and tall and Christian
    Pushing past the limit
    Tripping on hallucinogenics
    And then I crawled back to the life
    That I said I wouldn't living
    Cause I carried on like the wayward son
    And now through and through, I've come undone
    And now I am just but the wayward man
    What with my bloodshot eyes and my shaky hand
    Cause I carried on like the wayward son
    And now through and through, I've come undone
    And now I am just but the wayward man

    The lyric in the chorus “ my cigarette burns my finger cause I forgot that I lit it” was a reality for me well kind of, I overdosed when I was 13 and was repeatedly hallucinating that I was burning myself with a cigarette that I forgot about but it wasn’t even there. I kept thinking I was on fire and eventually my mother found me took me to the hospital and they pumped my stomach and I had a security guard at the end of my bed because I kept ripping off the ECG wires and trying to get to the rack of doctor pants I wanted so much over and over and over again. This song is epic and I love it. It reminds me of a time when I was beginning to escape from the real in any way possible , a life I continually try to not go back to. Wishing for Much love an success for you💕

      Definitely, I hear ya. The first time I heard those lyrics, it made me instantly think of my younger years of insane drug usage & the many times I burnt myself, from being so fucked up & completely oblivious to the cigarette burning down to nothing bw my fingers. The lyrics made me strongly relate, but at the same time, they made me shudder, reliving those awful years but ultimately thankful I made it out alive & I'm still kicking.

    I've never found a song that better describes the darker side of hallucinogenics and what abusing it can do to you. A lot of it is very subtle and symbolic. The old him is dead. He doesn't remember the past well or people. Telling her (or someone) to go find a better man who's christian really shows the loss of ego and confidence that comes with abuse.
