Something is under my bed Something has entered my head and I can feel it breathing watching me Something has entered my head Living or maybe its dead and I can feel it closing in on me Living on a broken rock that's hurling towards the sun Spirals down without a sound, now it has begun Now it has begun Living or maybe its dead Couldn't believe what it said that we are just the ghosts of anarchy "And we are coming for you! Our fury unstoppable, too" A black tornado tearing down the street

Oh the time has come, my eyes are open They're peering through this inner realm I'm on the shore of seas divided Their walls surround me once again Floating down tunnels dark and broken The vision's twisted spider veins Sometimes I see you in these places but we forget each other's names And this time the crow is diving in the pool changing transforming a woman soft and beautiful I knew you well, I knew you loved me We wandered through those city streets And when I close my eyes I see you You take new forms within my dreams Its true I knew Those feelings passing through The ocean emotions rise in you Those buildings floating in the air they were reaching for the sky I saw a two headed snake in the corner of my eye dancing on the walls and chasing me down the pit of my subconscious Its true I knew Those feelings passing through I wish that I could have been better to you

In my dreams... In my dreams I found I could see the world through your eyes A different life... In your dreams you gave to me my songs my aspirations, thoughts, my desires you made me sing Thats what you meant for me All of my dreams All those thoughts and feelings given to me If I could see the world through your eyes If I could hear the thoughts in your head when you dreamed that I could sing Thats what you meant for me All of my dreams All those thoughts and feelings given to me And I'll help you sing yourself to sleep I'll never see won't ever be this way, won't see the world your way we are all islands trapped in the sea Playing my part this is the role you gave, singing my heart on stage tunnel vision... only this way You dreamed I was a writer You gave me all my songs You're nothing I could see, nothing but me Only reflections of the dream

I live and breathe these melodies that lock inside my head you know I can't escape them I live and breathe these memories, they lock inside my head you know I can't escape them If I could squeeze a couple drops of creativity from this lonesome drunken mess I could find my way back to your last caress I live and breathe these melodies that lock inside my head you know I can't escape them I live and breathe these memories, they lock inside my head you know I can't escape them Oh I ask so much, oh Universe with a smile that I don't regret and all the world is in my verse and I cannot forget all the lovely little games with those cold and bitter dames sharing the final flames of your cigarette Oh I live and breathe these melodies... Well I live and breathe these memories Oh I try so hard, oh Universe to get by and live without regret and all my love is in my verse so let us sing our duet about the lovely summer nights those cold and bitter fights wondering where we would lie if we never met
6.
I can tell you how I'm feeling But I can't feel what I know is real life will catch you, yeah it got me all the light and the sound came pouring in like the voices in our heads that we can't control and we think its us speaking lightly how unlikely! All these thoughts in my head, oh they are too much And you will find that the questions never end You will find me when your mind learns to transcend So take a breath and embrace the sweet unknown Don't forget that your life is not your own Hold my body, hold my mind I can see the flood but I won't resist all the noises, jealous voices we surrender all or we won't exist Always changing, rearranging listen to the tones that I stack like bricks new vibrations, intonations, we can sing our love, oh thats all there is
