Crystal Visions Lyrics

Cover art for Crystal Visions lyrics by Big Pink, The

It's about crystal meth. She held lightning in her hand = she had drugs with her.All of the hiding and running refers to trying to get high and evade police. The city that's run dry has had its meth supply cut off. The music video that goes with the song makes it clear that the more surrealistic images are part of a drug trip.

@pthalomarie Okay and why is it a soudtrack for Red Riding Hood? I mean, I don't have any better explanation, but I suspect you from using the "doesn't make a lot sense, must be about drugs" knd of logic.
