Asleep

[00:12.50] I'm not certain I'm not a ghost
[00:23.32] Is this free will or am I doing as I'm told?
[00:36.34] I know shadows follow the rules
[00:46.95] But what if tonight
[00:48.85] By the mercy of light I could choose?
[00:57.21] Watercolor lucid dreams
[01:04.57] I'll paint a future
[01:09.78] That I can redeem
[01:17.06] For just one precious third of my life
[01:24.40] I'm not hypnotized
[01:27.37] By the glow of a screen or the darkness I've seen
[01:35.95] With these tired eyes
[01:44.38] I've seen enough for tonight
[01:55.20]
[02:15.74] As my eyes close, my guards come down
[02:25.63] An armistice was signed
[02:28.62] Predator and prey on equal ground
[02:36.19] I lose my balance at the water's edge
[02:47.18] A Freudian slip
[02:49.24] But I can't remember what was said
[02:57.56] Watercolor vivid dreams
[03:04.36] Under lock and key
[03:08.05] Vague silhouettes
[03:10.50] Are all I've got left
[03:12.76] Till I fall back asleep
[03:18.21] An afterimage of the divine
[03:25.07] Or just my restless mind
[03:28.34] A broken cassette
[03:31.38] Can't help but forget
[03:33.72] And fade over time
[03:37.15] I'll press rewind
[03:43.83] Twenty-seven thousand times
[03:52.82] Give or take
[03:55.36]
[04:13.06] I'll paint a future
[04:18.47] That I can redeem
[04:22.63]
[04:28.75] I'll paint a future
[04:36.72] Watercolor vivid dreams
[04:46.97] Watercolor vivid dreams
[04:57.63] Watercolor vivid dreams
[05:05.80] I'll paint a future
[05:08.44] Watercolor vivid dreams
[05:15.47]
[05:21.13] I'll paint a future
[05:41.98] I'll paint a future
[05:48.99]
