The Trip

from New Growth by Red Wood

/

lyrics

I woke up in a dream
Blinded by what I could not see
The colors swirled in kaleidoscopes
Of perfect harmony

The stages of this journey
Are hallmarks of your sanity
Crippled by the ruins of your tattered reality

And it trails off into the ether
And the hole that you've dug gets deeper
And the trip you take will alter
From decisions that you make
One step will make a timeline that you can never break

And the apparitions that you see
Are all the ghosts of apathy
As they close your eyes and shut your mouth
Now the trip is going south

I woke up in a nightmare
Surrounded by the vacant stares
Of a thousand present demons
Surrogates for my feelings

And when you feel it out
You'll find your path in doubt
Illuminated by neon signs
That will tell you what its all about

We are mere animals
Gnarled into nature's machinery
That turns ones and zeros
Into blood and marrow
We are creatures
Of habit and circumstance
Thrown into the wilderness
To see how long we last.

And the effervescent sounds
Of the clouds as they roll in
Remind you of the certainty
That the trip will never end
