Nightmares In The Daytime

(album: Monster Philosophy - 2008)

I need a time machine Mr. Wells
I'm on top of the world
But it should have been someone else
It feels like I died in an accident
Without time to be afraid or to suffer
My soul just left

I can't even tell you what I've seen
I can't even tell you where I've been

Waking up from living your dreams
Nightmares in the daytime
When everything is as it seems
But you're paying it no mind
Let me tell you right away
First they come
Then they stay
Never slip away

My house is empty I don't care
My world sits on nothing it just hangs in the air
And when the only light is the sun
It's a desperate day and I wonder what I've become

With things to remember to forget
Don't even know what's left to save

Lived by the rules
And going insane
All my ghosts turned into real men
Art was dead
And I'd been a saint
Until last night it happened again
Back to the time
When the beast barked
