Soak and Drown

from Old Lost Days (1998 - 2002) by Hutch Harris

lyrics

The log entry number is lost
I can't remember time better spent
Beautiful colors, a hallucination
Now let us share, now let us share
We're soaking in altered states
And drowned in cliches

Everything is as it seems
You arise drawn wide open
And drawn in regret
As you wake from the dream

The heights lure and warn
But I won't fear the heights
And I won't fear falling
Beautiful terror, a hallucination
Folks will conceal
And will secrets to their heirs

With words I cannot do justice
To dreams worth living
And lives left fleeing
But I will not flee

Everything is as it seems
You arise drawn wide open
After you wake from the dream
It's as good as a memory

Now encounter a crowd of flesh and hair
Drool in a hunger, a search for familiar
Beautiful lover, a hallucination
I am more than torn
I'm begging and bleeding

I will peel the skin back from my face like a mask
Just to soak fear in oil, and drown love in water
I will rewind the tape, I will try to erase
All I can offer for my mistakes is apology

A hand in apology
And a hand in regret
