Placebo - Lend Me Your Mind
You think sugarcoated pill
and, nah, you can't fool me
Imagine, not that there is no
sky above us - but - travel
at the speed of conversation
you talk about walking to the shop
and - there you are.
Imagine, a second and third heaven
purer and purer as you move
through the layers
Imagine, angels, beautiful
sounds beyond comprehension
Imagine, moving
at the speed of thought
now here is a novel idea
you think mars and
you're there, not eating one
but on the planet.
Now
Whilst you were reading this
did you feel any pain?
