We Live In a Strange World

I am coasting on nice dreams

Lonely, folding on each other and

Waiting for great things

But all they do is stop

To grace me with cold sleep

If I breathe in, I feel another

Erase me to pace me

And hold on to the drop

Sunken in, now we live in a strange world

Sunken in, now we live in a strange world

You let the bastards grind you down

Collapse a vein so you don't drown

Sunken in, now we live in a strange world

I was straight seamed and naïve

Unturned stones and plastic diamonds

That made me heavy

I'm rolling to a stop

If greatness leaves me alone

I know I won't recover

Erase me, pace me

I'm waiting for the drop

Sunken in, now we live in a strange world

Sunken in, now we live in a strange world

You let the bastards grind you down

Collapse a vein so you don't drown

Sunken in, now we live in a strange world

Circle me in cerulean

Pressure me in the counterfeit

Shelter me in complacency

The ghost of me will finally sleep in the blue

Sunken in, now we live in a strange world

Sunken in, now we live in a strange world

You let the bastards grind you down

Collapse a vein so you don't drown

Sunken in, now we live in a strange world
