There's a world, Inside my head
When I sleep, When I dream
There's a place, I like to go
Where I'm free, Where I'm whole
And I don't want to wake up, Just to face reality
So I beg them to let me stay, But alas it cannot be
Somewhere beyond, In time and space
Another me, and I trade place
I wonder when, While I am there
If my dream, Is his nightmare
And I don't want to wake up, Just to face reality
So I beg them to let me stay, But alas it cannot be
I'm in an old Victorian, An abandoned library
Enlightenment is locked inside, And I am here to find the key

House of Endless Rooms

Dreaming mystic, traveling sleeper
Dreaming fool, Drifting deeper
Endless rooms, Endless halls
Endless doors hidden in walls
There a puzzle resides, You've come to find
A truth that hides, Inside your mind
There's a secret there, You need to know
Questions is, How deep will you go?
Sliding panels, swiveling bookcases
Trap doors revealing secret places
Searching rooms, and rooms,
And rooms, endless rooms
There a puzzle resides, You've come to find
A truth that hides, Inside your mind
There's a secret there, You need to know
Questions is, How deep will you go?

Lost Inside
03:11

Was it ever meant to be?
Hell I may never really know
I've been lost inside so long that I swear I
Have no desire to go
I'm ain't looking for reasons, Nor reason
Lose me in, Some soft oblivion
How can I search for the truth when I
Can't even reach you
And you're right here in the room
Let me escape please
Let me stay asleep
The deeper I get
The further I go away
Sought inside for
Some great unknown
Only to find myself all
Lost and alone

The Unraveling Mind
03:01
|

Reality and delusion, Are like the beach and sea
Which one is the rock, And which one is the wave?
When it all comes crashing down you'll know
All the circles you've travelled
And the broken mirror shards will show
How far your mind has unraveled
Reality will cause the mind to stress and break
Wake up to disillusion and numb the heart to cold

The Nihilist Mirror
04:43
|
|||
We're prone to see patterns,
Connections, relations
When in truth they are the
inevitable result of infinite chaos
All this space, all this time
I've been searching for meaning in vain
In that final room, an empty place
I saw a mirror, reflect someone else’s face
I've run out of patience for mystical nonsense
If the truth is a delusion then where does that leave me?
I'm an oneironaut
lost on a pilgrimage to the other side
Did I wake up in someone elses' nightmare
or is this one mine?

Eulogy to Love
04:04

We are all gathered here today
With our last respects to pay
To say goodbye to all sanity
And bid farewell to our humanity
We all mourn its tragic death
But it's breathed its final breath
We are all gathered here today
With our last respects to pay
To say goodbye to all civility
And bid farewell to our humility
We all mourn its tragic death
But it's breathed its final breath
And so I must bid adieu
The last part of me that cared for you

Cold
03:00
|

Next time you die on the street
Please try to keep it down
Find somewhere to bleed
Where no one else is around
I've gone so numb
And I am just one
In several billion
Lost all warmth
What have I become?
Cold
I’m so cold
It's so cold
We're so cold
Mankind can be so cruel
And life is so unfair
All this pain and suffering
But we're too jaded to care
We're all so numb, yeah
And I am just one
In several billion
Who's lost all warmth
What have we become?
