Woke up in a dream under asphalt trees soaked in the sap of the sweltering city wearing these old rat rags and sneering at the concrete Greyscale mindset stitched into my sleeve This town'll fuckin' **** ya and drop a coin on your grave dig your way up to the daylight and hang on to your ***** Waking up Snapping out. It's not so easy, is it? Waking up and snapping out... The barge is afloat on the sidewalk streams Burns in the summer, ******* doused in Spring the bums puke in corners children ***** in the alleys Sinking hulks. "Abandon ship!" on the galleys These waves'll ******* **** ya and pull you down in the deep this dream ain't worth waking for But we can't get to sleep.

Waking Up/Snapping Out
Woke up in a dream under asphalt trees soaked in the sap of the sweltering city wearing these old rat rags and sneering at the concrete Greyscale mindset stitched into my sleeve This town'll fuckin' **** ya and drop a coin on your grave dig your way up to the daylight and hang on to your ***** Waking up Snapping out. It's not so easy, is it? Waking up and snapping out... The barge is afloat on the sidewalk streams Burns in the summer, ******* doused in Spring the bums puke in corners children ***** in the alleys Sinking hulks. "Abandon ship!" on the galleys These waves'll ******* **** ya and pull you down in the deep this dream ain't worth waking for But we can't get to sleep.
