Too Dead for Dreaming
I look at you
You don’t look back
You can’t hear what I’m saying
Blinkered, you start to backtrack
Into your world of playthings
I wish you’d join me
You never know what you might see.
A thousand fountains – a million forms of ecstasy
A trillion ways to make your brain cells dance
But you won’t even try, your pupils are too blind
I’ll speak to
But words just vanish into zombied silence
I eye you up
You bring me down
With all your wordless violence
I wish you’d join me, you never know what you might find
Vault that pinnacle, climb inside this twisted mind
My grass is greener than the dying lawns of apathy which abound
But you just won’t find out
I’ll stare at you, you don’t stare back
You just give coded warnings
The duvet cover stays intact upon a summer’s morning
I wish you’d join me, who knows what mischief lies in store?
Behind the hedge, upon the wall, under the kitchen floor
In labyrinths and twisting mazes, a galaxy awaits
But sadly it’s too late
Because you’re all too dead for dreaming
You’re all too dead for scheming
You’ve blown your lives into the teeth of a gale,
You’re all too dead for dreaming.
You’re all too dead to believe in
That power that’s emtombed inside your skulls
Yeah - you’re all too dead for dreaming.
