Paroles
[Verse 1]
Acid, pot or pills
Which one will help me find
All the answers to the questions
Open within my mind?
I'm in a pool of indecision
Tryin' to learn how to swim
Searchin' around for a lifeguard
Measurin' truth from whim
[Verse 2]
Acid, pot or pills
Can they expand my mind?
Can they really help me see things
Or do they make me blind?
Where can I turn all the answers?
Whom can I look to for help?
Isn't there some kind of guidance
Deep down within myself?
[Verse 3]
Should I accept delusion?
Pretend that my vision's keen
Waitin' for time to blow my mind
Take me right off the sea, oh
[Verse 4]
Acid, pot or pills
Which one will lead me to
My connection with the power
Yearnin' to shine on through?
Foolin' myself is not the answer
Truth can't be found in a day
If I would search for direction
I would be shown the way
[Verse 5]
Should I accept delusion?
Pretend that my vision's keen
Waitin' for time to blow my mind
And take me right off the sea, oh
[Verse 6]
Acid, pot or pills
Which one will lead me to
My connection with the power
Yearnin' to shine on through?
Foolin' myself is not the answer
Truth can't be found in a day
If I would search for direction
I would be shown the way, yeah
