Paranoid intruders
Climb like ants through the wall
And under my pillow
While I'm sleeping
I'm so lost without you
This is all I can see
It pulls you out of my dreams
While I'm sleeping
The flicker of the TV
I'm all alone, that's how it goes
For me
Memories are fleeting
Should have done
I can't move on
I sleep
I'm so lost without you
This is all I see
It pulls you out of my dreams
While I sleep

And now I lay me down to sleep
A million voices in my dreams
With incoherent speak
Of faceless men alone at peace
They took me far away from home
Into a box there of my own
My covers here grow cold
I'm here so far away from home
Guess I'm moving on
It's over
Guess I'll take it on my shoulders
What you could call composure
Is not so easy
And now I lay me down to sleep
Another day, another week
I'm back here counting sheep
And all the crossbars they leap
When the tractor beam
Locked onto me
The blood ran out of me
But no one believed
Guess I'm moving on
It's over
Guess I'll take it on my shoulders
What you could call composure
Is not so easy
When the tractor beam
Locked onto me
The blood ran out of me
But no one believes

[He was a thing of dull concrete, forever falling nowhere. Swiftly, like a bullet, like a pebble, like an iron weight. The stars closed in. Now, all the voices were fading into farthest space. The voices faded, and now all of space was silent]
No use holding onto lead balloons
Refuse selling self to void the truth
I'm spinning out confused
But I know we're not through
I know somewhere there I lost my way
Under mental slumber far away
I swore I had learned
And still I yearn for you
One more day is one more
Chance to say what I want
Biding my time
I keep telling myself
While my life's on the shelf
Give it a wave
Goodbye
Lightless ocean let me down again
One more week is wasted by my hand
I'm stoic as best as I know
But I'm not made of stone
Another day
Another chance to say what I'm not gonna
Abdicate my self-control and I
Dream another dreamless sleep
The time is gone and I'm in too deep
And I will always wonder where the other road went
A parallel universe, a parallel self
I scan with vacancy
Ruin of mine
I swear it couldn't be
My grand design
(it's too late it's too late it's too late)
And I will always wonder where the other road went
A parallel universe, a parallel self
