Life is But a Dream
Falling gently into every goodnight.
Life is but a dream
Especially when the setting is a recreation of everything I’ve seen,
And In the end they just want my heart and my soul in their hand,
As if I am a puppet rather than the puppet man.
If only I were a real boy maybe I wouldn’t be haunted by the matter at hand.
Slit throats and stab wounds again and again,
I am real can you feel my hand I don’t know what’s really going on but please please don’t leave again.
I shot and didn’t miss, hit him in his head you should have seen the way his body went limp.
Then around the corner came another
off the balcony I went and already under my own cover,
Come out come out wherever you are they’re looking and they want to play a game with your soul,
Please please they beg just write me in your song I’m dying to be sold.
Help me and I can give you anything you want.
I am real can’t you see I can take life but if you weren’t real was it a life or what’s mine,
I could feel the blade as I forced it past his skin.
Blood on my hands watching as it drains down the road, see how the blood river flows.
Where am I heaven hell or eternity god let me know.
Life is but a dream but the same thing really does get old
