Last night I had that dream again
My world was black as night
Plagued by visions of a future world
Mr L, did you take your meds?
I sang about these dreams
Warning man of his demise
Wasted words that no one heard
Won't you please relax? I'll make your bed
Today I had that dream again
I roamed among the stars
On the wings of an amazing flight
Mr L, do you feel OK?
To a place beyond our time
Where the sunlight doesn't warm
And colour bleeds into the night
We may have to increase your dose today
I know the truth is out there
Didn't you want to see?
I know the truth is in here
Why should we believe you?
Didn't you want to flee
Now I have that dream again
I live beneath the waves
In a ground of grace and majesty
Mr L can I ease your mind
In the distant shadows loom
Cold machines rise from the deep
In a world once proud and free
Would you free your thoughts, let it all abide
I hate to have that dream again
They live inside my head
Feeling everything I feel inside
Mr L can you please be still?
They speak to me in dreams
They can see all I can see
They have always been my guide
Gotta hush now, please have another pill
I know the truth is out there
Why should we believe you?
Didn't you want to see
I know the truth is here
Why should we deceive you?
Didn't you want to feel?
We are all alone
There's no one there
You don't have to be afraid
Can't you see through this masquerade?
We are all alone
We are all clones
There's no one there
I am so scared
You don't have to be afraid
Last night I had that dream again
My world was black as night
Plagued by visions of a future world
Mr L, would you take your rest?
They speak to me in dreams
They could see all I can see
They have always been my guide
Won't you please relax? I'll make your bed
I know the truth is out there
Why should we believe you?
Didn't you want to see
Why should we deceive you?
I know the truth is in here
Why should we believe you?
Didn't you want to feel?
