Wandering around this dreamscape, Looking for some clarity, It's an escape from reason: Harsh constraints of Reality! This universe makes no sense, All I need is myself This is a place free from Conscious and Guilt I can kill, I can kiss There's no leap of faith Liberation in this black space Wheels within wheels though none is true, Smoke and mirrors, all I need is you. This is the world as I see fit, Lacking in ignorance, greed, and shit This is the world as I see fit: Lacking in Ignorance, Greed, and Shit! Endless potential for human Achievement! Humans of a different breed, Logic that won't concede. Free specters are sweeping All for Equality Utopia in the name of global utility Call me a dreamer, but this is what could be! Please, don't wake me! I just want to sleep... Shut down that alarm! You said you were strong, but you couldn't even hold onto your dreams To every man, what he needs From him, whatever he can We have nothing to lose But our chains and command! Imagine all the people Living for their dreams No more of this nightmarish Charade of Happiness Synthetic views of choice for Those in control Who are they to dictate Our Lives! I want to be free! Please, come with me I swear it was more than just a dream! On this bed, I may be trapped But in my mind, I can soar Now, I retreat into my... (Sleep for eternity, Dream 'til infinity) And Dream And Dream And Dream! Admit it, You want to see! Perfection's not fantasy! Throw out our differences, And we'll truly be happy! That's all we need: Anarchy! Human, That's all we are. But why are we not all human? Shut down that alarm! Wandering around this dreamscape, Looking for some clarity, It's an escape from reason: Harsh constraints of Reality! Roaming tattered dreamscapes Hiding from Reality! A world without reason, No grasp on Charity!

Conformity, Commodity Perversion of Poverty Uniqueness, Eugenics Manipulation of Minds Class Wars, Chain Whores Unoriginality Galore Refusal, Reliance Try to Penetrate Your Psych Independence is Questioned Perseverance is Bested Then You Take The Ride! I need admiration I want a hero Give me a corporate cock To suck on Image First Character Second Did you really expect me to relate to you?! Shut up and do your fucking job FM Stations, Product Placements It's All One Big Charade Industries Spread Feces And We Lick Up The Disease Fueling The Fire Willfully Ignorant Buyers Following a Silhouette of Perpetual Shadows Of Fashion Suicide of Self-Expression We've Misplaced Admiration Fuck this faux-individualism that's sweeping the high schools Look at the big picture, you've already been bought and sold You're a very special child, and a very boring adult Shop topical while it's still hot If we're all unique, we're obviously not Now send in the clowns... Eternal Trapezing And Lots of Appeasing Endlessly Pleasing The Masses of Fans Losing Your Grip Will Lead to Your Downfall Demise of the Clowns

Under your blanket, between the sheets Door cracked open, dark thoughts come to meet Late at night, the absence of light The most subtle of noises cause stirs of fright You dispel the nonsense, wade through lunacy Into the safety net of rationality Dubiously, you play sick fantasies in your mind Directing outlandish scenes with senses blind Imagination as limitless as the lack of illuminousity A tap on the window does all but quell curiosity Laughing silently, you play off the abrupt happening More nervously as the syncopation continues haphazardly Swallowing saliva, you slow your breathing Chills, shivers invade your privacy You scoff and crack a grin, Pranksters' patience will soon wear thin As the bark of the willow your neighbors are Reticent to trim With every sharp Pang, Pang, Pang, You feel a dull pain Your blood pumps at double-time You blink fast To hold back A cry, a shriek, a display of fear If only to remind yourself you're still alive "Please shatter," you whisper Between chugging gasps (swigs of air) Pillow clenched around your ears, Your disposition frays (splitting hairs) Face to the bed, You beg for its end "I don't wanna die, I don't wanna die, I don't wanna die Just break already, Kill me now, I'm ready for my murder" You scream helplessly in your head You lift your head above the sheets Tasting mucus, the salty rivers stream Monsters are not real What's behind the glass will pay for the stealing Of your sanity The bedlamite will pay with its life With your final ounce of strength, you rise As the room begins to shake Creeping so swiftly, your legs feel heavy You grow more dizzy Stumbling towards the curtains, you bite you lip until it bleeds With all you got, you pull the fabric to the ground Silence Is the only sound now You gaze and gaze, Falling victim To your weight Leaning against the pane, You wipe your face Chuckling, You kiss the transparent casing And close your eyes... Tap, tap, tap... Tap, tap, tap Less than a second later Tap, tap, tap You widen and face emptiness, the same view Tap, tap, tap From the corner of your eyes Tap, tap, tap You glance at the door Tap, tap, tap Trapped, trapped, trapped
