These ghosts that haunt me are still alive
Still cold to the touch and still drain my life
These tombstones mark where I should have lived
Too trapped in myself so to myself another glass I give
Drink the medicine
Make this world feel worth surviving in
Do not let the villain of reality win
Hide the mind in a fog that seems kind
Forget reality because reality is not for me
Who needs regret when you can just forget?
Keep floating through because it’s the best you can do
Seeing through cobwebs when I want to see through stained glass
Seek to feel divine so pour some more wine
I stop the fall and avoid most of it all
With enough the surreal will be soon revealed
Take it in
Sedate the within
I won’t let the demon called reality win
Hide the mind in a fog that seems kind
Forget reality because reality is not for me
Who needs regret when you can just forget?
Keep floating through because it’s the best you will do
Cobwebs will always invade my stained glass for sure
I drink my medicine, but you are my only true cure
