Have you ever had that dream where you wake up and it’s gone?
No matter how much you want it back
You close your eyes again but all the thoughts now in your mind
Are every waking moment you have but have always done wrong.

That waking dream, a passenger, on downing plane or boat
No matter how much you always try
You’ll never change the course again and surely you will die
It’s written in your thoughts, you KNOW, that you will never ever, ever, ever, ever, EVER, EVER FLOAT

Sit up quickly, look around and there’s no one in the room
We’re sweating now and we need water, comfort from someone
But that dreaded feeling, all alone, that moment of suspense
A glimmer of relief we realize we’re the only ones afforded all this nightmarish doom and gloom we’ve brought upon ourselves.

I didn’t want an easy ride, even in the other world
I’m less inclined to suicide than maybe I once was
But sober and I shut my eyes and time keeps rolling back
To once upon a time again my path, unchosen, and my universe unknown

The morning sweats at 4PM, the world is in full song
The sunlight burning through the curtains
Quick reminders of where life went wrong,
The days and nights, they always seem to run a lifetime far too long

Ever had that dream before, where you’re running through that glue
A sense of person that you know and that shadow is not really you
Escaping something you don’t quite fear
But in your heart your frozen
That shiver down your spine,
That shiver down your spine,
That shiver rocks you to your very core and everything you knew

Displaces you in time and space and all that you believe
Everything you comprehend it blows away, and turns into your grief,
Locked away inside yourself and throw away the key
The final question left to ask is what the **** just happened
And was it always meant to happen purely just to me
