Verse 1:
A likely story that often haunts me
I can hear it in my own plea
Sweet dreams turned no longer lovely
While the sheep of my nightmares
Are hopping to and fro
I stifle from consciousness
As if I didn't care to know
What the current predicament
Beheld from my own intent
And so I'd only awake in cold sweats
Just to let my mind circumvent
From the worst of it...
Chorus: Just to let my mind circumvent...
mind circumvent; Just to...
Verse 2:
Just to flee from the pain
This mental strain
That contains no beneficial gain
Whatsoever, a sick endeavor
Tainted with the trick of the mind
The hopes and dreams of my own design
That I left behind for man kind
To mock (You're insane!)
But honestly I can't complain
I often try to fixture emotions to cope from
Life's crane, suffering and pain
Left with nothing to hold dear-
I'm as bitter as Bruce Wayne
More uncaring than a car in the wrong lane
A servant merely here to entertain
...Dreams and fantasies
Wished them all happily
But now I could care less like
Courage being cowardly...
Chorus: Just to let my mind circumvent...
mind circumvent; Just to... cope..
