Acid Trips

V5.5

[Verse 1] Tabs on the tongue in a stranger’s kitchen Ceiling starts to melt into my hands Wallpaper breathing, my heartbeat twitching Laughing at the shape of a frying pan Friends turn to cartoons, teeth all glitter Every word we say feels like it was planned Colors in the sink swirl bigger, quicker I’m sure I met God in the garbage can (oh yeah) [Chorus] Acid trips meta, angel or vendetta Heaven in a heartbeat, hell in the same stare Riding on a waveform, begging for the back door You don’t really know it till it strips you bare Acid trips meta, saint or scarlet letter Beautiful and brutal, tangled in your head You can touch forever, or claw through the tether One wrong corner and you’re better off in bed [Verse 2] Mirror on the wall says I’m still thirteen Eyes too wide for this borrowed skin Clock hands bend, fall off the machine Minutes leak out, crawling on my chin Floor turns quick to an endless spiral Every thought I’ve had piling in a stack Breathing like a crime, panic going viral “Did I break my brain? Will I ever get it back?” (hey!) [Chorus] Acid trips meta, angel or vendetta Heaven in a heartbeat, hell in the same stare Riding on a waveform, begging for the back door You don’t really know it till it strips you bare Acid trips meta, saint or scarlet letter Beautiful and brutal, tangled in your head You can touch forever, or claw through the tether One wrong corner and you’re better off in bed [Bridge] Some nights it opens every locked door Shows you you’re bigger than the blood in your veins Some nights it pins you to the cold floor Makes you shake hands with all your shame Is this insight Or just poison in disguise Did I find light Or just fractures in my mind [Chorus] Acid trips meta, angel or vendetta Heaven in a heartbeat, hell in the same stare Riding on a waveform, begging for the back door You don’t really know it till it strips you bare Acid trips meta, saint or scarlet letter Beautiful and brutal, tangled in your head You can touch forever, or claw through the tether Playin’ with the spectrum You might not come back from the edge
