My painted face, I'm a clown,
And I'm laughing while my dream turns into a nightmare,
Fade away, I'm asleep,
Not too deep.

The walls of night have left me scarred,
The broken glass I stepped on twice,
The ardent [bad word] edge decapitate me.

I can't sleep, fear darkness,
Go through the motions. Did I fall asleep?
I'm bowling, the old nine pin, a sign unwanted.

Now I'm target, I'm hot and frozen,
Stormy rain, I'm stuck in an elevator,
Breathing hot air, winds convey me.

The number talks and I cry in my own [bad word] 
Wide awake, I'm asleep, see a friend as a ghost.

I'm skating with a seal,
The tarantula, the fly, the broken ring,
The dusty little flea,
An ugly giant, a disappointed child.
 [bad word] a rabid snake,
The broken violin, a wild ballet,
Shakespeare [bad word] 
Refuse to kill the kitten scratching me.

Falling, falling,
I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling, awake.

You know, if you believe the dreams,
The nightly visions, worlds entwined,
Then you also fear your shadow... paranoia, part two.

All the good things in my life dwell in my mind,
Took a wrong lane, every day I hear myself say,
Sickening's this feeling, my life, my hopes,
My dream's but a drop of fuel for a nightmare,
For a nightmare.

They all turn out the same,
My destiny, my flame.
Believing is control?
No!
The [bad word] alive,
Takes me inside a world without a name,
place [bad word] 

Believe the dreams that let you sleep,
The broken glass you need to sweep,
The book you read, if you found an explanation
To help you in any way, you are your own prison!

Woke up today,
The good, and the bad, and the ugly dreams are gone,
Jumped off the carousel.
