you ever have a dream
where you realize
that you're dreaming?
that's my life
halfway through a dream
and i realize
that i'm dreaming
and i tell myself to wake up
get up
gotta start the day up
but i don't
my world feels fake
but i can't wake up
and then realize
i've been sleep walking
it's not a dream
i've been sleep walking
this is my life
and i've been talking
and walking
and doing casual things
all this time
i thought it was a dream
but i've been awake
and alive
not really living
but this is my life
and it doesn't feel real
and it's centered on time
but now time doesn't matter
i'm alive, i'm alive
but it only lasts a minute
sometimes longer if i'm high
and then it's back to normal
i'm back in rhythm with time
sleep walking
sleep talking
sleep living my life
and it all feels normal
not like i'm living a lie
until i wake up again
only to realize (again)
that this isn't my life
it's not mine
it's not mine
my entire existence
is wasted on time
