I'm constantly in this dreamlike state.
It's like I'm never fully awake.
I'm constantly in this dreamlike state.
It's like my brain is on a life long break.

I feel like I'm walking through a cloud.
I'm just waiting for my mind to wake up.
I feel like I'm walking through a cloud.
I'm just moving along like a lost little pup.

It's like I'm not actually here.
I'm in third person watching a fictional game.
It's like I'm not actually here.
I'm in the sky only hearing my name.

I'm on the edge of imagination and reality.
I can't tell what is real or fake.
I'm on the edge of imagination and reality.
I can't even wake up if my life's at stake.

I don't know if I'm awake or sleeping.
It all feels the same to me.
I don't know if I'm awake or sleeping.
It all feels like I'm not where I'm supposed to be.

It's like I see things through a ***** lens.
I'm not sure what I'm looking at.
It's like I see things through a ***** lens.
I'm not sure it should be like that.

All my movements are in instant replay.
I view them over and over again.
All my movements are in instant replay.
Is this how it's always been??

I follow the lines like a guide.
But all I do is stray away.
I follow the lines like a guide.
How do I know when to leave or stay??

Everything I see is an outside view.
I see my body from above.
Everything I see is an outside view.
Will somebody please just give my head a shove??

I never know if I'm in a dream.
I've locked my consciousness in a cup.
I never know if I'm in a dream.
Why can't I just wake up??

Something isn't right.
I swear I'm not lying.
Something isn't right.
God, why would I be ******* lying??

I'm constantly in this dreamlike state.
It's like I'm never fully awake.
I'm constantly in this dreamlike state.
It's like my brain is on a life long break.
