one two zero

The song 4th Dimensional Transition by MGMT makes me happy.

Why?  It's completely breathtaking.  The music is so trippy, like seriously I've never done acid or anything but that's what it makes me think of.  It's fast but the song is spoken slowly.  I doubt that makes much sense though.  You really must listen to it.  I love the lyrics.  Here they are:  I feel your racing heart.  My liquid silver arms extended.  These waves aren't far apart.  Black gold in clawfoot tubs.  Unchanging.  I am fine.  Where's my form?  Whisper crimson.  I intrude.  There's light beneath your eyes, new over tones in view.  Endless form, endless time.  If what they say is true you are a shadow in fourth dimension.  To float away with you.  We see the corners where nothing happens.  While we drifted we were one.  Ceilings lifted, walls were gone.  You speak the language of the breeze.  All your leaves were meant for me.  The love that every person wants to be.  Stuck together, I don't like revealing secrets.  I'd live inside your lips if you won't laugh.  My heaving hands are rotten fruit at last.  Fallow fingers there's a surface I can count on.  She'd fit inside my heart and take it over 'til her cape got blown into my red, red lungs.  Either there's a purpose or I'm heading out.  At breakfast take a drink, take a drag, one more coffee.  Ugly hat.  No more mirror.  Woolen bag and I am gone.
