I swear it ain't so what they ensue.
I never did know just what to do.
And all that I'm told is life can wait,
But I wanna come home to see your face.
I need a friendly face.
****
I'm king of the dreams and you're queen of sleep.
We rule this land of pillows and sheets.
We'll stay in bed all day waiting for night,
Watching the world leave us behind,
Waiving goodbye.
****
I meant what I said; I'd wait for you.
I only told one soul of my truth.
I waited forever chasing a dream,
Only to see that I'm not me,
That I'm not me.
****
Wondering how I got this way,
Imagining if I'll be the same.
Wander around this empty place
To feel alone, to feel all alone,
To feel at home.

Wondering how I turned so right;
Imagining where I broke the light.
I searched for a way to slip right out,
To make it all wrong; It's where I belong.
The light is too bright.

And no one's alive to watch me sink.
I haven't yet learned just what to think.
And every way out seems fraught with pain.
I left them alone to be on my own,
To sink back home.

I'm king of the dreams contained to sleep.
I ruled a land of pillows and sheets.
I stay in bed all day waiting for night.
Watching the world leave me behind,
Waiving goodbye, waiving goodbye.
****
I planted a world inside of here.
I'm growing a life in the shadowsphere
Where all of our ghosts meet up in time.
I'm ready for mine. I'm ready to find
The ones left behind.
****
I've been king of the dreams too long to know
Which way is the one I want to go.
I've mangled myself in too many ways
To come back home; I'm left here alone.
There once was a world I used to know.
