This song is the first track on Cassandra Alexa’s first EP “Infidelity + Truth”. This trippy, psychedelic song describes not wanting to just be looked at as a lustful, short-term, or quick situation, or a “temporary high”, and wanting something substantial.
[Talking]
Are you even listening? I'm trying to talk to you. Can you just talk to me?
You're high, aren't you?
[Chorus 1]
Temporary high
Your temporary high
Your temporary high
Your temporary high
It's temporary
Temporary high
Your temporary high
Your temporary high
Your temporary high
Don't wanna be your
Temporary high
Your temporary high
Your temporary high
Your temporary high
Don't wanna be your
Temporary high
Your temporary high
Your temporary high
Your temporary high
It's temporary
(Lighter flicks) (Inhale)
[Chorus 2]
High
A temporary high
A temporary high
A temporary high
I don't want just a
Temporary high (temporary high, tempa-, temporary high)
A temporary high (temporary high, tempa-, temporary high)
A temporary high (temporary high, tempa-, temporary high)
A temporary high (temporary high, tempa-, temporary high)
I don't want just a
Temporary high
A temporary high
A temporary high
A temporary high
I don't want just a
Temporary high (temporary high, tempa-, temporary high)
A temporary high (temporary high, tempa-, temporary high)
A temporary high (temporary high, tempa-, temporary high)
A temporary high (temporary high, tempa-, temporary high)
I don't want just a
Temporary high
A temporary high
A temporary high
A temporary high
It's temporary
(Exhale)
[Bridge]
When you come down, (down)
Off of your clouds, (clouds)
You will see that you need
Somethin' real and it's me. You will see (We're coming down)
That I'm more than a touch, than a feelin' of lust
Than a moment or a night or a (We're coming down)
Thrill or a rush (rush)
I need somethin' real from you
And I can give you somethin' real too (We're coming coming down)
We can't keep chasing a thrill (thrill)
I need somethin' real (real)
I can give your real if you give me real (We're coming down)
I can't chase a temporary high, high
After all, it's happiness is temporary
It's temporary
It's temporary
I can't chase a temporary high, high
After all, it's happiness is temporary
It's temporary
It's temporary
