FROM THE TRANCE

I know you tried to love me

Nothing in this world but pain is free

Don’t you stare too long at the illusion

You might get an emotional contusion,

You’ll find that truth is a simple dance

Once you wake up from your trance,

I lost sight of that crystal corridor

As a toddler when I could barely walk across the floor

Just a child gawking in a candy store

Now I seek refuge behind the interstellar door,

Now you bring me back in time-what for-what for-what for?

To a place that exists no more

My personal ship wreck just offshore

These useless words that come from my inner core,

You’ll find that truth is a simple dance

Once you wake up from your trance,

Those tragedies of yesterday

That brought me so much dismay

I fear are here to stay here to stay here to stay

And it won’t make a difference anyway,

Forever on this quest

For the answers before I can rest

Just here on the face of this planet as a guest

Wondering if it’s all just a spiritual test,

You’ll find that truth is a simple dance

Once you wake up from your trance.

Searching for that cosmic romance

Lord just one more chance

I’ve lost everything before from a glance

In a world seduced by technical advance.
