about

Did this track a while ago. I wanted to cut it down to about 3:30mins but it wasn't as good. Have fun.

lyrics

Took A Trip
Words and music by Danny Bulla/Trendlaser
Took a trip
Just for the Day
Took a trip
Just for the day
Took a trip
Just for the day
Took a trip
Just for the day

Took a trip
Just for the day
Had to go
Had to get away
Don't know
What I was hoping to find
Maybe the answer
Is in the back of my mind

Felt the need for speed so
I stepped on the gas
A million miles an hour
Didn't seem so fast
Failed to read the signs
I went past
Hit a big bump
Still I crashed
Wasn't my fault
It was so dark
Ran right into
A question mark

Took a trip
Just for the day
Got all fucked up
And lost my way
I wanted to cry but
I had no tears

In the bewilderness
I wandered for years
I wandered for years and years
Til I found my way back
Strange you might say
To be gone so long so long
To be gone so long so long
And be back
The same day

Took a trip
Just for the day
Took a trip
Just for the day
Took a trip
Just for the day
Took a trip
Just for the day

Took a few steps
Then I was in it
A girl pressed against me saying
You want to spin it
What we did
In this dimension
I won't go into the details
Things like that
I shouldn't even mention

Found myself on the boulevard
People buying people selling
Everyone was talking
Somebody was yelling
Once I assured myself
It wasn't me
I slid into a coffee shop
And ordered some tea
I was informed there was no
Tea or coffee either
Only had some blood
Type A or B
No thanks I'll have neither
Went outside and thought
Quite strange you know
You know you know
All of that blood
And no type O

Saw a guy I know
They call him bug
Not a bad guy
I mean for a thug
He has some problems
Mentally
I saw him
He didn't see me
Think it's time to find my way back
It's time to find my way back
Was time to find my way back

Think it's time to find my way back
Just for the day
Just for the day
Had to go
Had to get away

I was blocked
Stuck in a rut
Thought it was time
To shake things up so
Took a trip
Just for the day
Took a trip
Just for the day
