Lyrics

I had a dream
Where all the people on this plane, they were conspiring
To rob me while I slept, and they took everything
And they laughed right in my face while I was suffering
No, I couldn't leave
Without a dollar to my name, there would be no bargaining
And they never even said what they could want from me
While I pleaded and I begged they dragged me from my seat
And they rifled through my bones
When I woke up from my dream
They'd returned me everything, my wallet and my keys
And at least a dozen other things
But I thought I had lost it all
I had a dream
All the people in my life, they all just ran from me
And the monster I'd become was too far out of reach
And the only thing I needed was someone to see
That I was lonely on my own
When I woke up from my dream
Everything was as it seemed before
My hunger and my greed were at normal quantities
Although I thought I had lost it all
I had a dream
I was falling into nothing, into everything
And the people from the plane, they point and laugh at me
They cracked their knuckles and they started to chase me down the street
And I ran till my feet bled
When I woke up finally
I found myself fifteen again
I hadn't done a thing
There was nothing I was running from
But I thought I had lost it all
The road keeps going, but I cannot
And I know not if this place is my home
And yet I keep coming back
And I don't know what
Or who
Or when
Or how
Or why
Any of this is supposed to happen to me
Or happen for me
Or happen within me
It all seems beyond me
And yet I can't just let these things happen
As if I were a boy again
Waiting to hear the ice cream truck drive down my street
Living waiting for a memory to catch me off guard
A voice or a face to hold a knife to my breath
There are these things I must face
So many things I must face
And so many things I cannot
So I ramble on
I find myself in someone else's eyes
Tell myself these stories
To pass the time
Songs to fill the air
Songs to forge pillars in the ocean of this life
Songs to make characters of myself
That I might find reprieve in my own imagining of some fiction
And find these fleeting phases in the figures of history
To assign each emotion a verse or refrain
To give these feelings a beginning, middle, and end
