[Segue 1: Timothy Leary & Interviewer]
~#**************#~
Have I answered the question, “Who am I”? (Mhm)
~#**************#~
Well, I confront it all the time
~#**************#~
Were teaching people how to use their head
~#**************#~
The, uh, point is, that in order to use your head, you have to go out of your mind
~#**************#~
You have to go out of all of the, uh, static symbolic ways in which you think
~#**************#~
[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
If it was colors and shapes, the imaginary
~#**************#~
‘Stead of all of this weight that we have to carry
~#**************#~
Would you be able to breathe?
~#**************#~
And if you could just find where that comfort resides
~#**************#~
No distraction or movement that fucks with your mind
~#**************#~
Would you let them see?
~#**************#~
While beneath the ocean, I met with the captain
~#**************#~
Who sank to the floor on his ship
~#**************#~
All of his passengers escaped to safety
~#**************#~
But he was not done with his trip
~#**************#~
He looked up and smiled, asked me, “How do you do?”
~#**************#~
I told him, “Im losin my grip”
~#**************#~
He told me, ”Son, if you want to hold onto yourself
~#**************#~
Then let yourself slip”
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Fall, ooh-ooh-ooh
~#**************#~
Fall, oh
~#**************#~
Fall
~#**************#~
Oh, it feels good to fall
~#**************#~
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
These puzzles are so hard to make into pictures
~#**************#~
Of something that theyll understand
~#**************#~
They could open their eyes, still be blind to the beauty
~#**************#~
But march on the heart of this land, oh-oh
~#**************#~
Why dont you turn around and go home?
~#**************#~
They invade your minds and then fill them with nonsense
~#**************#~
These things that a man doesnt need
~#**************#~
Take out the love and the passion and hope
~#**************#~
And they fill it with nothing but greed
~#**************#~
While floating through galaxies, they said I couldnt
~#**************#~
I noticed how sad one can get
~#**************#~
‘Cause the ignorant mind is so peaceful, I find
~#**************#~
I cant understand nothin no more
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
If I jump, let me fall (Yeah), ooh-ooh-ooh
~#**************#~
If I jump, let me fall, oh
~#**************#~
Fall
~#**************#~
Oh, it feels good to fall
~#**************#~
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
~#**************#~
