Trapped here in a dream Slipped beneath the seams Existence like steam All I can, it seems Only a figment The world you invent And so I lament

5.	HATE WORLD 03:22	lyrics	buy track
You lie you cheat you steal you kill You suck blood til youve had your fill You cant see yourself in the mirror Just your nostrils getting nearer Victor plays the victim again Knife in the back of all your friends You eat each other for the taste Redefining human waste Sometimes life can be like swimming through sewage without a snorkel Youd die if truth passed through your lips You kill what should pass through your hips You bathe in blood but lose your youth You killed the fairy for a tooth You put poison in the well You burn the earth to make it hell You paint your face up like a clown The circus tent comes crashing down Anger and frustration manifest themselves physically as a thick slime that surrounds the brain within my skull seeping into every crack crevice and fold within my mind clouding my thoughts with its impenetrable ooze
6.	The World is a Mirror 04:05	lyrics	buy track
My thoughts are reflected In everything I see My headspace is projected Onto the world around me I live inside my head My problems my inventions And if the world turns red It's only an extension No one has ever hurt me Only I can hurt me The only pain I feel I gave to myself I can't be hurt By somebody else And all the world's colors Are of my design Artificial amplifiers Of what's inside my mind And I hate what's outside Because of what's inside Nowhere that I can hide Myself I'll always find No one has ever hurt me Only I can hurt me The only pain I feel I gave to myself I can't be hurt By somebody else Everyone Wants everything To be anything Except for what it is

8.	A Principled Man 03:05	lyrics	buy track
I wouldn't do those things No sir, not me That's downright disgusting! Couldn't be me I've got my principles Yes sir, I do Not like the animals That much is true I wouldn't roll in the mud Where'd these stains come from? I wouldn't drink a man's blood Where'd this taste come from? I wouldn't talk that talk What was that noise just now? I wouldn't walk that walk That much I can't allow I'm a principled man Yes sir I am I do the things I'd never do Like the man I really am I wouldn't do those things No sir, not me That's downright disgusting! Couldn't be me I'm a principled man Yes sir I am I do the things I'd never do Like the man I really am
9.	Faith Drain 04:05	lyrics	buy track
There's something missing Inside your heart You sense in me The missing part Like a moth to flame My light inside You didn't realize What you wanted to find You won't accept it You refuse the light You hate the shadows Caused by its bright You need what I have But you'd rather destroy Crush my strength Replace my joy You don't believe in God You don't believe in love You don't believe in anything That comes from above You only want lust You don't want to grow Your only concern Is what's here below Teeth in my neck Sucking like a drain My faith my life Flowing through my veins I could put light In you instead But you'd rather take mine Til your belly's fed You want my worst Bring out the beast Eat away the good in me Unholy feast Darkness over light Wrong over right Blind over sight If I give in it might You don't believe in God You don't believe in love You don't believe in anything That comes from above You only want lust You don't want to grow Your only concern Is what's here below

11.	...and She Did Not Dream, Pt. 5 02:50	lyrics	buy track
It's taken me this long to realize I'm not in your dream, you're in mine I let you stay here in my mind I let this dream of you waste my time If I died In my sleep You would live Forever If I died In my sleep You would leave Me never
12.	...and She Did Not Dream, Pt. 6 02:48	lyrics	buy track
I counted the days until November You didn't need my help to stay alive So many events I misremember Building fictional timelines I contrive I was worried all throughout the Fall I believed I could save you if I tried I was of no consequence at all You didn't need or want what I supplied Can a prayer be wasted? Can a prayer be wasted? If a prayer can be wasted Then I wasted it on you Can a prayer be wasted? Can a prayer be wasted? A prayer cannot be wasted I just want to put the blame on you
13.	...and She Did Not Dream, Pt. 7 (Finale) 04:41	lyrics	buy track
You're not the first I've brought here There were many in the past But I'm hoping, God willing That you might be the last I'll admit that all of my selfishness was selfish And I hate to say it, but I liked you more when you were helpless I only sin the most cowardly sins I can't even tell whose dream I'm in I hardly ever dream when I'm asleep Because my daydreams are already too deep Forgive me honey but when you're this naive Sometimes you choke cause you forget to breathe How long can I let you live in my head You torture me with words you've never said I loved you for who you never were Now I hate you for the truth I ignored I loved you for the things you never did I made you up cause I was lonely and bored In my mind I've got a cloning machine I've got a copy of you in my dream It replicates you as you seem It builds only the you I've seen But what I've seen is not the truth And I don't think I can blame it on my youth I've got no more excuses This machine's run out of uses How long can I let you live in my head You torture me with words you've never said I've got to focus on what's real instead It's done, it's time for this dream to be dead

about

If I had to sum it up in one word I'd say this album is about "reality." These songs work best in tandem with each other so I'd recommend listening to the whole thing in order, like an album, for the best experience. God bless!
