Don't Let Me Wake Up Dead

Too much to do
And I'm not quite through
Darkness coming
but I'm not afraid anymore

Demon time
Closing behind
An hourglass shattered
Sand all over the floor

Work that's not yet finished
Desires undiminished

Lord don t let me wake up
Don't let me wake up
Don't let me wake up dead

Complete a bucket list
Of everything I've missed
Figure out what came
before the big bang

Carve a flute
Learn to play the lute
Then try to sing
All the songs that I never sang

Banish preconception
Sharpen my perception

Lord don t let me wake up
Don't let me wake up
Please Don't let me wake up dead

Play a quantum
hide and seek
Evaluate life
With a sober critique
Sing this silly song by the light of the moon

Soak in the sunlight
a-praise my life
figure out whether
Love's just a doorway to pain

Walk a fine line
Idiot or Einstein
Try to separate
Genius from the insane

Get all the masses
Heads out of their asses

Lord don't let me wake up
Don't let me wake up
Please, don't let me wake up dead

Inst

Reason and desire
Dancing in the fire
One will leave
The other, just ash in a jar

Apathetic
Nearly anesthetic
Should be cryin' like the
Slide on a steel guitar

Callous wasteland a
Heart encased in amber

Lord don't let me wake up
Don't let me wake up
Please, Don't let me wake up dead

What can I know
What should I do
What may I hope
Will it ever come true
Sing this silly song by the light of the moon

Lord don t let me wake up
Don't let me wake up
Please, Don't let me wake up dead

Lord don't let me wake up
Don't let me wake up
Please, Don't let me wake up dead
