In case of emergency, please break my mind;
'cause you might be doing me a favour in time.
Put out my flame before I go up in smoke,
trapped in this state and words that I choke.
The unbelievable melodies and the capture of these:
subtle harmonies and the lucid philosophies.
The state in which I thrive I perceive to be;
The undulating waves that take me out to sea.
The swell in my eyes as the current takes in;
going back and forth, I never learned how to swim.
The contradictions in my hands I gotta let loose
before they wrap me up in a fuckin' noose.
Good Lawd
In case of emergency please break my mind
'cause it might be the last time
before I try to get it right but come up short;
when action is everything I always retort.
The theory is good as it can be
unless you do away with conventionality.
Living in space is a helluva way
to feel isolated and allow the mind to stray.
Well, in the deep void, can the whole become all?
Or a portal to somewhere where we know not?
So, choose your choice and make your mark.
For what will you do when your mind goes dark?
