How dull it is
To live in real life
Where dreams are limited
And everything dies
The illusion we perceive
Is all black and white
Shades of grey
With numbness intertwined

Life flows through me
But I don't feel a thing
This waking life is wretched
And all I want is to sleep
Sleep until the colors come
Flooding into my dreams
If I saw them with my eyes wide open
Maybe then I would believe
