Lionface

Taking acid at Leeds festival need I say more

Waking to offers of new vaccination

A small square of card in my palm so green

It takes a while to dissolve and swallow

But what can I say when it's given for free

As world grows brighter I'm sitting in my chair

So sun starts to burn me a peeling red

The people talk and I can't understand them

Retreat inside me my own world instead

Trees are candyfloss and sun is of butter

You tell me I'm seeing but I don't believe

Sky starts to grow as the trees all go crazy

Leaves making patterns as their branches weave

As I turn to him familiar features

The figure is warped as an acid disgrace

I start to turn as I have seen it

The twisted reality of lion face

And as we get up to leave this safe haven

To start a long walk for music entertain

I cannot walk as the fields are so crowded

With familiar faces I try to remain

In sun filled field we look forward swaying

I don't understand what is going on here

As toxin haze recedes lion face returns

Then once again everything becomes clear
