Light Beam

I want to stomp on the breaks and put this traffic on pause    
I want to unwrap from my body like some expired gauze    
I want to become a beam of light and shoot straight up to God    
I want to take a peak behind the curtain at the Wizard of Oz    
Where there's no laws, or road blocks, or close calls, or bad odds    
but is there really such a place with no flaws?    
I don't know    
I'm feeling high when I'm sober    
moon landing like Apollo    
my mouth is getting dry    
and it's getting hard to swallow    
I know I shouldn't spend my time    
wallowing in sorrow    
Ive been smoking on the daily and my lungs have turned to charcoal    
The nights cold, I'm solo, emotions hitting notes like low keys on pianos    
tomorrow I'll love ya    
but tonight I'm hollow
