about

A First Experience:

While there are many more details from my first (and only) experience with LSD, this is what I came up with.

lyrics

Maiden Trip

Pacing down at the edge of the dock
Never been off this monochrome rock
Bought my ticket to make the escape
That is no longer only a word on the tip of my tongue

The first wave washes over me
For the moment still moored to the land
I thought that the stories would have painted a map
But I know where I'm headed is out of my hands

CHORUS:
Let the tether fall
And push away
I tell myself
I'm never going to be the same
As I drift farther from the safety of the shore
A million doors open
And before I see where they go

I am free
I am swallowed
I am beautiful
I am out of control
Take me
How will I ever get home

The mirror can only disguise what I see
(Shall I peel my face away)
Caught in a loop that envelops the peace
(Can't turn it off, can't make it stop)
Here it comes again

Let the tether fall
And push away
I tell myself
I'm never going to be the same
As I drift farther from the safety of the shore
A million doors open
And before I see where they go

I am caught
I'm enlightened
I'm expendable
I am more than I was before
Save me
How will I ever get home
