lyrics

I had a dream last night that I was about to die, and there was nothing I could do to stop it; a sharp decent down a cliff that stretched on for miles, to the deepest of seas.

I looked up the precipice to see all my friends fade out of view, apathetic stares on all their faces.

A calm fell on the world, a sudden release that said everything would be fine. The water loomed nearer, and I closed my eyes, now at peace with my imminent demise.

But the surface came, and there was no water; there was nothing at all. I careened through the blue nothing for centuries, or so it seemed, completely content with the fact that I was now completely alone.

Until the blue turned black, and I jolted awake to the same room from yesterday.

And a look at the clock told me I was late again.
