A Thousand Strings Inside

Footprints Across the City

CW/TW: Drugs

Welcome to wonderland, Allen
Here you'll see no blinking lights
But jazz that seeps through you
Like a shot of neon into your blood
Welcome to paradise, my friend
Here you are unseen, known but invincible
This the place hidden in maps
Where madmen both wise and dumb gather to dance to jazz
Welcome, you are my friend, bring someone, they are welcome too!
Everybody is welcome, everybody could be mad!
Tis' the place where lost souls find their sweetest fantasies
Welcome, my friend
Finally, you are found!
Forget the niceties and jerk your worries away
Take my hand and accept the gift in my palm
Sooth your tired body and see peace in the back of your eye
Exhausted from tribulations, we deserve to have this little gooey time!
Let's sail far far away
We'll dodge the towerman's light
Cloak yourselves when it gets cold
You'll find yourselves tomorrow on the floor
Wasted minds of youth and juvenility
Trashed by this over-demanding society
I know your father
And when he finds out, he won't smile
But he'll remember his time with us
When the days we're as high as the clouds.

He's just like his son.
