[Verse 1]
Wanted it to
Feel the same way
As the first time
As the first time
But the feeling
Slipped away
To red green blue
And then I saw you
In the airport
It's the same thing
As the first time
As the first time
I watched the tiles
Slip away
Into the restroom
Then I saw you
Wanted you to
Glimpse the same things
That my eyes saw
That my mind saw
But the vision
Slipped away
Into nothing
[Chorus]
Ran down my brain stem
And out my fingers
I felt the cold air
And touched your black hair
The rushing colors in acid rain
The umbrella screened you
And then I saw through
The umbrella screened you
And then I saw through
The umbrella screened you
And then I saw through
[Verse 2]
Follow the signs
Through the desert
Through the desert
To the other side
One cycle later
I met my savior
In the arches
In the forest
Is it trees or twilight?
Can't ascertain
I was in the taproom
And then I saw you
Then I was running
Pushing air in my lungs
Feeling the light
Bounce off the moon from the sun
And slip into nothing
Into nothing
[Chorus x2]
[Bridge]
Feel it slip away
Slip away, slip away
Slip away, slip away
[x8]
[Chorus x2]
[Outro]
Feel it slip away
Slip away, slip away
Slip away, slip away
[x4]
