(difford/tilbrook)
The liberator of sin
The giver of delight
I took the drug
And went out like a light
I giggled on the bed
As I stared at the wall
I was the one who felt ever so small
I couldnt take it
I couldnt win with my thoughts
Forever playing chess
And keeping reports
On whatever I saw
And whatever moved
I was emperor for an hour
I had nothing else to do
The universe caved in
My legs fell away
I took the drug but you didnt say
That I would be you and you would be me
When I took the pill
That put me to sleep
I couldnt take it
I couldnt spin all the plates
Forever in a mind field of personal games
What could I do
I was caesar of rome
Thank God I woke up
To find you had come home
