Trippy Journey

its not like life is just a fad
sometimes its good and sometimes bad
but today was not the best
so i gotta be happy not be mad

its not like there's no answer to be used
both to the guilty and acused
but today was kinda weird
and my brain feels quite abused

its like my courage was betrayed
i coulda gone but shoulda stayed
but today had lots of freaky vibes
so i just ran away and played

i found a path so i can strive
got literal to not contrive
but today nothing was clear
so i walked fast to speed my drive

---Pause - guitar solo

here today my heart is beating
tomorow could be a sudden meeting
a dance with all time offers
you know life is here retreating

as i look for signs of blessing
once a miracle undressing
a chance to renew my mortal hope
instead of hiding out and stressing

with all the colors to lament
sometimes it seems my glow is spent
in moments of passion resolute
then left to cool to black intent

at first im solid strong and straight
but soon ill break apart and wait
for the wind to come and take me
on the smoky wings of fate

...on the wings of fate

-----Chorus
im me...  im sad... im confuzed... im afraid... im alive...
im me... im fleeting... im distressing... im decadent... i dissipate... i lament...

im sad... im confued... im afraid... im alive... im me...
im fleeting... im distressing... decadent... i dissipate... i lament...

-----Chorus end

...of past loves in life ive spent
to those who came to stay then went
but nothing lasts forever
i just wish i knew what it meant

im bold
even when my heart is weak and cold
when trouble comes to take its mold
to set down low and take a stance
and make my actions unfold

so your heart seeks signs of blessing
all the dangers youll be facing destroyed
our world built of passions resolute
a flaming giant pacing

sometimes youre not all youre cracked to be
but then who is master who is flea
i guess its about footsteps as you try
not so much the end of all you see

so my heart seeks signs of blessing
all the dangers ill be facing destroyed
my world built of passions resolute
a flaming giant pacing

sometimes im not all im cracked to be
but then who is master who is flea
i guess its about your footsteps as you try
not so much the end of all youll see
