Raise my riffle to my eye



Enemy just within my sight



Why am I surprised to see



That he looks a lot like me



Doesn't come off without a hitch



My trigger finger starts to itch



When everything falls into line



Both of us about to die



He from the pain of this wicked world



Me from the sane of this peaceful soul

Shaking
Taking in breaths
Through the bottom of my feet
Aching
In all the places that I landed
Mind overtaken
By all the possibilities
Of things that could've come
Live life in the moment, kids.

Fearless
I have a new metaphor all in my head
of bookmarks and card sharks and things that are dead
I make lots of sense and then sometimes I don't
will they think I'm crazy? well, maybe they won't
junkyard of words I am sifting through
Ick what was that word? Pew!!
No, that's not why I am sorting this pile
Maybe I should give up and sit for a while

You sleep every night
You dream every night
From waking dream to sleeping dream
Everyday and every night
From island of waking dream
To the island of sleeping dream
You keep leaping around
Reality  floats in between these two dreams
Escaping from these dreams
Seizing  the gap
Going beyond these dreams
Far it seems
