Running to Stand Still

OK Computer, so there I was... In the Broken Bricks, Lost! in Planet Telex, living my Favourite Worst Nightmare. Then she appeared. She was... she was a Fluorescent Adolescent. Her bright Green Eyes stared deeply at mine. “Lost?”, that was all she said. Quietly, I replied.“Yes”. After a while, she went on: “Follow Me Home”. She left and called me, guiding me through The Bends of Telegraph Road, In The Cold, Cold Night. I asked myself What She Came For, but for an instant it just didn't matter at all. It was dark. I just made One Rainy Wish. Home.

It was dark. I was Dazed And Confused. The world started spinning, the vision slowly fading away... The black blur was involved by a white smoke. I decided to Ramble On, but my mind didn't let me. I was Running to Stand Still. It was dark. My thoughts, suddenly woken up, got me Trampled Under Foot. I was alone, lying among the Dead Leaves in the Dirty Ground. In the sky, only a Champagne Supernova in the pitch-black night. She took me to the the House of the Rising Sun. I couldn't see, I couldn't Escape. I stayed in that Cave, sucked into the Supermassive Black Hole of my mind, waiting for the Morning Glory....

I opened my eyes. There she was. “Hello”. I look around. I'm resting against a Wonderwall. Before I can get my mind in place, she offers me: “Have A Cigar”. I grab one. I'm shivering. My body looks Yellow. All over the place, I see Clocks. With a faint voice, I thanked and said “I'm So Tired”. She smiled. “Here Comes The Sun”, she said. Deeply, her green eyes looked into mine again. “I Want To Tell You Something”. She waved me to follow. We walked a bit, until we reached this place, Where The Streets Have No Name. “Look,” she went on, “Everything Will Be Alright”. I thought of asking her “Can You Read My Mind”, but before that she was gone.

I broke down. “I Wish You Were Here”... She wasn't. Not anymore. And there I was, Sitting on Top Of The World, standing on a Violet Hill, Running to Stand Still...
