It only took a half hour,
and here was the feeling.
It was fucking euphoria I was feeling,
this warm, fuzzy feeling.
All the pain I had throughout my body was over now,
this was it,
this was not the work of weed,
not the work of the booze,
I didn't know what this was, but it felt right.
I could sway with the melody of my own life,
This exasperation was just on, just right,
and I was swimming,
no longer suffocating,
and this is forcing me to believe I can close my eyes and feel this,
and I was broken free from the world,
Let me keep swimming,
this beauty,
this was right,
and I was no longer suffocating...
I was getting lost inside my own mind,
This is beauty,
This is right,
this is my new life.
