Porcupine Tree - Voyage 34 - Phase One lyrics

The time is 930 PM
One hour after the participants have eaten
Sugar cubes saturated with LSD
We hear Brian and his fellow
Travellers observing their
Gradual transformation

Brian's been amusing his friends by
Chewing on some plastic flashbulbs

Brian's mood is gradually changing he
Orders all of his
Friends into another room and closes the door
He sit's alone on the wooden floor
Visible only by the dim light shining from
The bathroom he talks to himself

The time is now 1 AM brian is unable
To snap his fingers and terminate the trip
Which continues
He sobs, as his joy turns to fear

Brian's rocky journey ended twelve
Hours after it so
Innocently had begun he was shattered by it

This young man never had a bummer
In some thirty-three LSD trips every
One of them was a delight
Everything under control he needed
Only to snap his fingers and down he came
Any time but on Voyage 34 he finally met
Himself coming down an up-staircase
And the encounter was crushing
