devil came by this morning, said he had something to show me, I was looking like I’d never seen a face before, here we go now, let’s slide in through the open door

pictures of things that I’ve done before, circling around me out here on the floor, I’m dreaming this and I’m dreaming that, regretting nothing think about that

I’m seeing waves breaking forms in my horizon
Yeah I’m shining
I’m seeing waves breaking forms in my horizon, lord
I’m shining yeah

Are you hearing me?
Like I’m hearing you?
Are you hearing me?
Like I’m hearing you?

You know I almost lost my mind
I can’t explain
Where I’ve been
You know how I’ve almost lost my mind
I can’t explain
Where I’ve been
You know I almost lost my mind
I couldn’t explain
What I’ve seen

??
To find that the images are fading away

I’m seeing waves breaking forms in my horizon
Yeah I’m shining
I’m seeing waves breaking forms in my horizon, lord
I’m shining yeah
Are you hearing me?
Like I’m hearing you?
Are you hearing me?
Like I’m hearing you?

You know I almost lost my mind
I can’t explain
Where I’ve been
You know I almost lost my mind
I couldn’t explain
The things I’ve seen
But now I think I see the light
Now I think I see the light

Lend me your hand
Lend me your hand
Lend me your hand
Lend me your hand
Lend me your hand

I’m seeing waves breaking forms in my horizon
Yeah I’m shining
I’m seeing waves breaking forms in my horizon, lord
I’m shining

Oh are you hearing me?
Like I’m hearing you
Oh are you hearing me?
Like I’m hearing you?
(Repeat)

You know I almost lost my mind
Now I’m home, and I’m free

Did I pass the acid test?
Did I pass the acid test?
(Repeat)

You’d better go to bed now
(Repeat)
