Acid Rain

Wanted it to
Feel the same way
As the first time
As the first time

But the feeling
Slipped away
To red green blue
And then I saw you

In the airport
It's the same thing
As the first time
As the first time

I watched the tiles
Slip away
Into the restroom
Then I saw you

Wanted you to
Glimpse the same things
That my eyes saw
That my mind saw

But the vision
Slipped away
Into nothing

Ran down my brain stem
And out my fingers
I felt the cold air
And touched your black hair
The rush of colors
Acid rain
The colors screened you
And then I saw through

The colors screened you
And then I saw through

The colors screened you
And then I saw through

Follow the signs
Through the desert
Through the desert
To the other side

One cycle later
I met my savior
In the arches
In the forest

Is it trees or twilight?
Can't ascertain
I was in the taproom
And then I saw you

Then I was running
Pushing air in my lungs
Feeling the light
Bounce off the moon from the sun
And slip into nothing
Into nothing

Feel it slip away
Slip away, slip away
Slip away, slip away

Feel it slip away
Slip away, slip away
Slip away, slip away
