Lucy Has LSD

By SleepingDead

Just one little pill
How bad can it be?
A trip where colors
Are everything you see


'Picture yourself in a boat on a river..'


The world starts to come alive
People's faces twist and turn
I sit on the riverside
And watch the water burn


'With tangerine trees and marmalade skies..'


The colors are talking
I see the sounds they make
As they sit and whisper
I understand everything they say


'Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly..'


Their voices mix together
They're stuck in my head
My eyes look from right to left
What is that they said?


'A girl with kaleidoscope eyes..'


Shadows are forming
At the tip of the sounds
They're engulfing them slowly
In the shadows, they drown


'Cellophane flowers of yellow and green..'


Silence is theirs now
The sounds don't make a move
I know they're coming
I am in their dark view


'Towering over your head..'


I can't see them now
I'm waiting for a sound
They've seized the colors
And there's no one around


'Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes..'


They come silently
I'm running out of time, I know
I run swiftly and jump
Into the burning water I go


'And she's gone..'


You may have heard about me
I am the one in the sun
I am Lucy, the one above
In the sky with Diamonds

    The moment I started reading I had a flash back.. I ended up sitting indian style in front of a big screen tv alone watchin a movie with soldiers marching in sync ... Wasn't till someone walked in and said "you could probly see it better if it were turned on!" 5 hours later!!! I love it! Scholar
