Eagle

An average teenage boy
Joe just wanted to fit in
A stranger in a strange new town
He did what the others said was �in�
And slipped the acid under his tongue
The night grew late
The party grew old
Soon the others forgot about Joe
They weren�t around when his drug kicked in
When he had learned to fly
The wings just suddenly appeared
Light beautiful and fast
But they weren�t really there

The acid still took away all of his
Average teenage cares
The temporarily relief of all his pain
In exchange the image of Joe as a
Beautiful bird, an Eagle
Gliding to the top of the apartment complex
Joe was ready to spread his wings
A low crouch was
His final jump
Joe�s golden wings failed him
Lying on the ground was not an Eagle
Just another teenage boy
Deceived
Joe tripped on acid
