Slipped On a Tear Drop

Slipped on a Tear Drop

I slipped on a tear drop and landed
Upside down in a crystal world
Wherever I looked reflections rebound
Up was down and down was up
Oh what have I gone and got handed

It’s worse than fun maze on a pier
How can I make it out of here
If this was up and that was down its worse I fear
For now I am lost in time and space it appears
Round in circles like a merry go round here

Now I find that in revolving of the mind
I cannot see a way, am I blind
With eyes that will not see behind
The crystal maze that I seem to find
It’s holding me here in its inclined

Wish there was a way out of this space
Why did slip on the tear drop on my face
That’s what I must discover so to leave this place 
What made me cry to have this time and space
Discovery will make me free to come to my place
