I woke up early in a daze, my head still ringing Purple Haze. I woke up early in a daze, my head still ringing Purple Haze. I woke up early in a daze, my head still ringing Purple Haze. I think it's time for better days. The sun is up—been up an hour— in the sink an empty growler. The sun is up—been up an hour— in the sink an empty growler. The sun is up—been up an hour— in the sink an empty growler. It's time to climb this watchtower.
A nice nod to Jimi. The repetitions make it seem like the narrator is caught in a loop of overindulging/abusing alcohol. I love beer, but a whole growler a night would certainly leave my head ringing for sure. (I actually think there are beers out there named Purple Haze…). Time to climb the watchtower – maybe get up and go to work, or is it time to get control over this excess? Open on that interpretation.
Thanks for your response, Denise. The prompt worked out on this one! yes a nod to Jimi and Bobby D.
