Owsley Lyrics by Spectrum

Forever Alien

1997

[Verse 1]
I woke up this morning with strange echoes
Of fizzing solar systems drifting through my mind
Underwater plateau's of unimaginable beauty
Shimmering my minds eye, an airborne flow almost as if orchestrated

[Verse 2]
Strange creatures telepathic to my every emotion, chatter together
A muse that my inquisitiveness to their pulsating domain
Colors of light never before seen in any known spectrum
Cascade indifferent, happy in their flight, and finding joy in their speed

[Verse 3]
Soft sounds unique in their beauty, laugh at my mood, irresistible
Seemingly emanating from alien beat made sirens
Slowly I become welcome in this strange valley
And the mysteries of man and time emerge before me, obvious in their simplicity

[Verse 4]
My ego shatters into thousands of tiny silver slithers
Meet me, and the dividing kaleidoscope of indescribable colors and tones, gloriously uncomplicated
Time seeks stretched out almost immeasurably
Till it seems to have stopped, and then a random movement from one of my fellow travelers gives me a measure of its relativity till next time it flies to its dark phase

[Refrain]
Oh Augustus Owsley Stanley, where are you now?

Owsley, can you hear me?

Owsley, where are you now?

Where are you now?
