lyrics

I don’t know how the fuck I got here
I’m just glad I made it out the nightmare

In one direction, in the distance there’s sand and dunes
Other direction there’s Cliffs with oceanic views
Music floating through the air. I think its Panic Blooms
In a circle around a fire sirens dance to grooves
Singing praises to Gaia as the fire burns
I just remind myself to shut my mouth and try to learn
What is it I deserve? What is it I have earned?
Why would I worry bout your life if its not my concern?
(Turn to face the shore
(I know I’ve been to this place before
Such a vivid scene, but is this a dream?
(I’m somewhere in between
Around the bend is the most beautiful place I’ve ever seen
I have to make it over there before I leave

I don’t know how the fuck I got here
I’m just glad I made it out the nightmare


Embrace my super powers
No more racing through hours
Take a break and smell the flowers
Smashing regrets, no more lasting effects
Not just fuckin I’m having passionate sex
Hangliding as the sunsets
Are we having fun yet?
Take a trip to the moon to get her undressed
Ascend back to your room
Did you cum yet?
I stand atop an obelisk
Scanning the metropolis
I see ‘em planning ways to topple this
But this is my world, that bullshit is not a risk
Then I glance down
How many stories down? I can’t count
The fear sets in. I can’t even stand now
How did I get up here?
Get me to the damn ground

Now that I’ve landed I don’t see the world the same
In this universe in my mind, I can feel no pain
Psychologists study your brain and try to explain
What your dreams represent and why you’re insane
But nobody’s story is easily told
We’re too complex to fit in a mold
All we want to do is live til we’re old,
Fall in the fold, and buy what we’re sold
Dreams can be nonsense, dreams can be goals
Dreams can be things you see that teach things you should know
Stay curious of the unknown
Share your stories when you come home
Who’s to say that what we experience in dreams
Doesn’t affect the waking life of all these human beings
We’re digging deeper. Tearing at the seems
It’s for the people and terrible for kings
