何も無いような空間で
それを彩るような風景で
古いビルの上からの光景に
吸い込まれてくピンクの光景で

何から何まで歪んで
アルミニウムの色さえ愉快で
1グラムにも満たない重量で

1秒先のメロディーに乗っかって
波は揺れる世界歪む
音が誘う月が笑う
波は揺れる世界歪む
音が誘う月が宿る
Spaced spaced out

吸い込まれてくピンクの光景で
何もないそして揺るがない

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in ACIDMAN's song "Spaced Out" describe a world that is both beautiful and twisted. The singer describes being drawn into the pink world of light seen from the top of an old building. Despite the fact that everything is distorted and warped, the aluminum colors are still enjoyable. The waves are tumultuous, and the world is wobbly, but the moon is still welcoming. As the song progresses, the words "spaced out" are repeated again and again, underscoring the dreamlike, altered state of mind of the singer.

The repetition of the phrase "spaced out" highlights the song's theme of being caught in a kind of dream world. The lyrics suggest that there is beauty in the surreal and bizarre, as the singer finds pleasure in even the mundane, like the color of aluminum. The song seems to be celebrating the way that the imagination can lead us to new and unexpected places.
