'cause I don't pay attention

Ah, I forgot about that first line.

The pressure-free bit is all about letting all your worries float away. I mean nothing sticks around with you forever - unless you have some mental disease that requires psychotherapeutic attention.

Hi Mind

There's something in this that reminds me of the song "Oh Suzannah"  I like the rhyme and the rhythm of this but I don't really understand it.

Quote:
To sink,
into your drink,
and to mellow out
the world's social bout,
is just about
the only pleasure
I care for.

In this verse you say that you enjoy drinking someone else's drink "your drink" - yet in the next verse you say nothing would make you sip another man's drink
 
And not a single demeanor
could drown my pride,
not a washing tide
could sink my ship,
Wreck and rip,
or make me sip
another man's drink.
 
Not even a gilded gift
would make me blink;
But a balloon, to pop,
to fizzle, and stop,
this lovely daydream.
My soul itself would scream.
 
Though,
of course you would know,
"Forgive & Forget"
is my motto.
 
But alas, henceforth,
for what it is worth:
The skies above shall send litter.
Sweet candies shall turn bitter.
And below, the mound
will shake and sound,
'til gravels' ground
and truth is found.
 
Then slowly, assuredly,
as time does tick,
as trees grow thick,
it all becomes pressure-free.  I'm not quite sure what the "all" is that becomes pressure free.
