ANESTHETIC PARADE
Sleeping his only escape from it all
When hes dreaming, he gets a chance to escape from the world and leave it behind
He doesnt know what is real, but he knows hed rather not deal.
He doesnt know what is real,
but he knows hed rather not deal
He doesnt wnat to wake up to the world
Running she wants to run across the grass
Instead shes lying on a hospital bed, hooked up to gas and tubes and lights
She doesnt even know shes alive
Except her mothers praying by her beside
The coma has her locked into a hole
She doesnt even know what is real
except what they tell her to feel
What are you looking at?
Sometimes the things behind us help remind us of that
No they never told us
Somewhere between the conscious and the sublime
familiar faces meet for a moment displaced in time
When one of them talks he says he wants to give up,
cause his daughter has been taken across
He doesnt think he can make it on his own
When the other face tries to respond she sees the face is already gone
