The piece seems very circular (I doubt that's the right word) but lemme explain...
The last line to me expresses one's constant search for utopia, a better world for all, where there is no sadness only joy. Yet I also pick up a pun on "fly" where by one usually by night seeks to get high... or rather as the title explains "intoxicated". Something to remove the sadness, allow for less anxious dancing and a connection of language between two persons. This then brings me to wonder, Do we remember how to fly by substance and forget upon sobriety?
I love <3 the imagery of "stone smoking steps" it almost feels like sitting there you'd be grounded but still feel lighter than air.

Awesome piece, hope to see more soon.

This flows very well with some very well put together lines.

That glimmer across a crowded dance floor

The first line is beautiful
