I have seen the world of dreams

Fresh-flown through the trees then dropped off at the curb alive
Have seen the world awake

And I don't know which I deserve

So when sleep nightly comes to me

With all of these warm blankets piled on my back

I'll hike to see the church of dreams
Where all of the shutters are painted black

And it seems like that's real until the time I awake
And at midnight the moonlight reflects

As the lake is shining at me

Until night takes it away

There's one world in the distance
One world in the way

And not one can stay

I have seen the wood of dreams

Carved grainless and clean with a sweep of one hand

And have been happy with the leaves on my body when laid under land

So when sleep finally comes to me

Because it comes for the sleek like it comes for the lame

I'll sink beneath a weight of dreams

So full and complete that I'm pushed from my name

And it seems like that's real until I fall asleep
And then we load up the car
And drive far to some street where a new life awaits u
Ntil day takes it away
There's one world in the distance

One world in the way

And not one can stay
