Alternate Universe

When I lay my head down another world begins
It never seems to have any beginning or any end
Reality and dreams blur so bad, it's hard to tell the truth
It's like I'm at a carnival inside the dunking booth
I could be a clown, or I could be a jester
I could light light bulbs from y head like I was Uncle Fester
I could be high on drugs, or the man in charge
I could sink an innocent boat, or save the people from the barge.
I have seen wild parties I have never attended
I could see people I know, with reality slightly bended
I could see the living or I could see the dead
I could see things I have created all inside my head
I could live scenarios outside my wildest dreams
Sometimes it gets hard to tell, none of this is what it seems

Then I wake up, back to the same old shit
Once I figure this out, my dream world is just a myth
Back to reality
Which sometimes helps or hinders me
Through what eyes, do I really want to see?

Parties filled with ecstasy make me feel like I am God
Unlimited LSD, make me feel like that good kind of odd
Being chased by Alligators, gives me a blissful rush
Covert operations, put me in stealth and make me hush
Old friends who've passed away, always try to give me advice
Sometimes it's good ideas, sometimes it's not so nice
Is this subconscious or is it real?
I wish I really knew the deal
Is this a parallel universe?
Or is it some kind of curse
Do I exist in this plane?
Or am I stuck here, destined just to go insane?
Sometime it's better, sometimes its worse
Do I have more to do?
Or do I belong in the back of a hearse?

Then I wake back up into a world that doesn't understand me
Physical and mental pain has me eating pills like candy
The dreams show me the same
I'm sure you all know that I'm insane
I think we are all in our own way
There's no Boyscout an Girlscouts left in our day
Maybe these dreams are who we're really supposed to be
Maybey we all have our little touch of insanity
