Local Natives – Wide Eyes Lyrics 15 years ago
This song is definitely describing taking psychedelics.

The first few lines reflect how I feel before I trip.

We're told how drugs are evil, how they can kill you, etc. when we're younger in an attempt to thwart us from using them. I feel guilty every time I do drugs simply due to being programmed to think that way when I was a child from parents, anti-drug programs, teachers, etc.

During a trip (luckily I haven't had any bad ones) it feels like heaven.

Just my thoughts.
