CALM. - A Wet Nightmare lyrics

rate me

I find it kind of funny and I find it kind of sad

That the dreams in which I'm dying

Are the best I've ever had

Where there's fire I'll carry gasoline, we just ourselves

By supermodels, super imposed in magazines

What do you do when light switches don't work

And you're salsa dancing with confusion

When no one's your friend except needles and addictions

Without your enemies and your problems you'd feel alone

But I guess that's why we write fiction

Limping through life, pointing at beauty and writing novels

While the others hack off their limbs

And complain how they have to hobble

If I'm in the land of the dead

Then it's when I open my eyes

Everyday I keep opening my eyes, hoping you die

Maybe that could release the agony

Strangers don't talk

But I promise, I awoke when you cried

I awake everyday and I'm restless throughout the night

I swear they made me do it, when I took this axe to the pipe

Now my house looks like Venice

And I'm every derelicts apprentice

Life's like tennis

We wait till we're 40 to look for love

Misplace our racket

Get our teeth knocked out and god's the dentist

I said I'd never forget you but you forgot yourself

For control they teach self hate

So we don't kiss the mirror

Making up stories of Chris Cringle

Heaven and hell, pursed lips whistling with fear

If you can't handle your crisis

Then why not just disappear

That's what hypocritical brave people do

That's what they do

The best dream I ever dreamed

Was that I was falling from a rocket

And I died, I died, I don't dream

The best dream I ever dreamed

Was that I was all by myself but never alone

The worst dream I ever dreamed

Was that everyone was around me

But I had no place to call my home

I had so much to say but I had no lips

I had no tomorrow and I had no today

Everything was broken but there was nothing to fix

I had no more tears

I just had spit, I just had this, that's love isnt it

It's too many sacrifices, lips stick prices

And plastic Christ is

Sometimes I wonder what I'm a do with my life

Waster says it's a joke

Some wasting on chasing a cross or a pope

We keep biting off more then we can prove

Till we finally can't breathe and can see

That our goals can't be achieved

Till we take a look in the mirror and can't believe

Till we look in the mirror and say that can't be me

So we chain ourselves down so tight that we can't get free

We like to keep ourselves in hell

Stay Calm., 1, 2, 3

Same old shit

I wake up with sweat on my brow from falling in a dream

You know, the type when you jump up quick

Every time you hit

When everything feels like déjà vu

When you sit back and laugh cause you know what

Everybody's gonna do

If we're all gonna die

Then there is no us, there is no me, there is no I

There is no you

I can still see your face when you'd ask me a question

And raise your eyebrow

Like when we were looking up at the stars

And you'd ask me what am I thinking about right now

You wanted to change the world

But you never wanted to change yourself

You just wanted to give me a hug every time you hurt me

Lust is a sexually transmitted disease and love is herpes

Keep lighting up your cigarettes

And I'll keep this fire lit in my eyes

Cause it's hard for hate to go cold turkey

Every night I look up at the stars

Close my eyes and cringe

Only to open them up and see you off in the distance

Still holding that same fucken syringe

Wake me up when it's over

Give me a kiss on the cheek and hold my hand

Fly with me to the milky way

Where our thoughts can stay sober

And everything can unfold as planned

I find it kind of funny and I find it kind of sad

That the dreams in which I'm dying

Are the best I've ever had
