Song Lyrics

Only once in a life, mescaline
Floating over a mountain, like to sea
Stop and faint at the sun, feel the blood through your arm
Only once in a life, mescaline

Happy nightmare, have flown, live it through,
(Taste the beauty of the sweet red wine)
Grab for air, see your skin turning blue
(Smell the freshness of the grass beneath the pines)
There's a man with three heads
There's a girl with three butts
See they're both running fast after me
(Gonna catch you, gonna fill you full of love)

Have your head filled to the top with big pearls
(Feel the softness of the mountains hill)
Then you hear someone's dead in the world
(Sink your body in a cold bath of milk
You can bet your sweet life
That they fought with a knife
See they're all running fast after me
(Wanna kiss you, run their fingers through your hair)

Get a feeling deep inside that you're dead
(Can't you hear the clock of life ticking loud?)
Try to run from the snake pit in your bed
(Then you'll find what you thought could not be found)
Smell the nearness of the grave
Wonder if you can be saved
Other world's still running fast after me
(When they get you, gonna give you everything)
