1963

I was adrift
The punchline within your fist
And I was resigned
The critical flaw in your grand design
What is amiss
Do you try to endeavor instead of exist
And I was entwined
Caught in a wish I could never define
So what do you seek, do you hope to find
A broken halo, a beautiful mind
From a grassy knoll
You cut a hole and we climbed inside
Still pouring through
This slipstream view of the great divide

It was a masterstroke
A killing joke with a golden trace
A masterpiece with a fast release to a hidden place
And in the vast expanse
We fell entranced in a tangled haze
It's all monochrome
But which way is home when the color fades

We were in bliss
Dissolved down, drowned in the rift
You could call it divine
Drunk on the shine that'd never subside
And we were a risk
How can you hold on to more than a myth
Do you miss the sublime
Nothing out of our hands at the end of the line
So why do you fear what'll free your mind
Are you taking aim, trying to turn the tide
From a grassy knoll
You cut a hole and we climbed inside
We're still pouring through
This slipstream view of the great divide

It was a masterstroke
A killing joke with a golden trace
A masterpiece with a fast release to a hidden place
And in the vast expanse
We fell entranced in a tangled haze
It's all monochrome
But which way is home when the color fades
