The pros and cons of soul travel

An angel in the astrals
floats down to greet a fellow
lonely soul.
Lifts his head up out of his hands.
Stands up wipes the tears and waits for his vision to clear.
He said,
"What's happening here?...
Where am I?... Who am I?..."
Then she takes his hand in some strange otherworldly grip and pulls him through.

"Have a nice trip"

A demon in disguise
whose dream had been
destructed
in a fit of rage
Takes and makes a leap and lurks around
To see what lonely souls surround.

I lose my breath,
face turning red,
strange visions and decisions to be made.
Another nightmare
in the emptiness of space.

These are the pros and cons of soul travel.
These are the pros and cons of soul travel.
Oh love, we must be dreaming!

I was drowning in the darkness.
The wave of time crashed before my eyes.
"Swim" said Syd Barrett
"I'm too scared and too far gone"
I shrieked.

"Breathe in" he says
"Why won't you give it a try?
why deny the lie you tell yourself,
try to live before you die."

Do you remember Tim Leary?
Do you remember McKenna?
"Think for yourself and question authority"
Can you see them shaking their heads in the eternal heavens above?
"You are a divine being"
Finally we are seeing.

Did we understand the message people, are we still disagreeing?
The wave of time crashes in an eternal ocean.
So lets step back into the stream again.
"Turn on"

These are the hopes and fears of nobody.
These are the doubts and dreams of anybody.
Oh love, I must be fading away.
