I took a trip to the mountains
I took a trip to the sea
I took a sip from the fountain
I took a pill to be free
And you can say it was drugs
You can say it was God
You can say it was aliens
You can say I've lost the plot
You can say I'm a dreamer
You can say I'm too far gone
But I saw somethin' out there
So call it what you want
I spent a week in the jungle
Swore I came out a new man
Back to LA, I was humbled
Turns out I don't understand
You can say it's love
You can say it's a cult
You can always blame the woman
It's gotta be her fault
You can say I'm a dreamer
You can say I'm too far gone
But I feel somethin' different
So call it what you want
(Ooh, call it what you want)
Some days, I take things way too far
Some days, I have a change of heart
So say what you need to say
You can say I'm too young
You can say I'm too old
You can say I like girls or boys
Whatever fits your mold
You can say I'm a drеamer
You can say I'm too far gone
But I've nеver been better
So call it what you want
