Artist/Band: The Doors
Lyrics for Song: Stoned Immaculate
Lyrics for Album: An American Prayer [1978]



I'll tell you this...

No eternal reward will forgive us now

For wasting the dawn.

Back in those days everything was simpler and more confused

One summer night, going to the pier

I ran into two young girls

The blonde one was called Freedom

The dark one, Enterprise

We talked and they told me this story

Now listen to this...

I'll tell you about Texas radio and the big beat



Soft driven, slow and mad

Like some new language

Reaching your head with the cold, sudden fury of a divine messenger

Let me tell you about heartache and the loss of god

Wandering, wandering in hopless night

Out here in the perimeter there are no stars

Out here we IS stoned

Immaculate.


Stoned Immaculate

Released on The Doors' 1978 album An American Prayer, Stoned Immaculate stands as a hauntingly atmospheric track that blends psychedelic rock with gothic sensibilities. The song features Jim Morrison's distinctive vocal delivery, characterized by a whispery, almost spoken-word cadence that contrasts with the band's signature electric guitar work. As a late-career recording, it reflects the group's continued exploration of dark, mystical themes while maintaining the raw energy that defined their earlier work. The composition captures the essence of the late 1960s counterculture movement, utilizing minor keys and reverb-drenched tones to evoke a sense of spiritual confusion and urban decay. Stoned Immaculate remains a pivotal piece in The Doors' discography, showcasing their ability to merge poetic lyrics with intense musical arrangements long after their initial peak.
