Tripping with the One You Love

"My love", she said, "Can we go on a trip before we're old?"
I told her true, "I'll follow you to any place you go"
And when I stood to pack my stuff, she sat my ass back down
She said I was hers and she was mine forever, starting now
Then she took two tabs out of her bag and put them in our mouths

"Are we here, or did we disappear?", she said to me
"We're fine" was my reply, though I could hardly see
When through the ceiling's eye, I saw us tangled on the ground
Our dreams all intertwined with lies we'd told and lies we'd found
She told me, "Honey, all is one"
My blood ran cold with doubt

'Cause it's not easy tripping with the one you love
When every little feeling that you feel
Is half as real, but twice as real
And every word you say just goes away

"Do you see the way the walls can breathe?", she might have said
I might have told her "yes", I might have thought "fuck no" instead
Until indeed I watched the walls inhale and slowly fill
And though outside, the seasons seemed to change, the clocks were still
We laughed until we cried our eyes out
Clean over the hill

Now when at last the visions passed, I noticed something strange
Though we were more-or-less young as before, our love had aged
No longer was my every word to her a song
No longer did her gaze erase my every flaw
I couldn't say what happened, only that the trip was long

'Cause it's not easy tripping with the one you love
When every little feeling that you feel
Is half as real, but twice as real
And every word you say just goes away

No, it's not easy tripping with the one you love
And every little feeling that you feel
Is half as real, but twice as real
And every word you say just goes away
