This song is a wake up call to all people that are missing out on the truth. In a world where being called crazy is a compliment comes strength and conviction of beliefs even if everyone else ridicules you.
lyrics
Wind behind the curtain
Blowing as it please
While your mind is like a dandelion
Floating in the breeze
Awake and alone
In the darkness no one sees
Not blinded by distraction
And the peace it guarantees
Lazy river floating
(Don't go insane)
Permanent brain freeze
(It's not in your brain)
Laughing like mad children
Swimming in the trees
they lock the door
(Don't be misled)
And throw away the keys
(It's not in your head)
Fit you for a jacket
As they give you your disease
Ahhh
You wonder how you landed here
Proper expertise
You thought it time to wake up
And the red tape disagreed
Precisely unaware
Of all the looks that you received
For simply indicating
You got lost in the machine
Lazy river floating
(Don't go insane)
Permanent brain freeze
(It's not in your brain)
Laughing like mad children
Swimming in the trees
They lock the door
(Don't be misled)
And throw away the keys
(It's not in your head)
Fit you for a jacket
As they give you your disease
Ahhh
(Carnival dream sequence)
You got caught
Reaching for the cheese
Now the rats in your trapped head
Aren't just your bad dreams
You thought you could build a wall
Against the powers that may breathe
Now you're sitting in the corner
With your arms around your knees
Lazy river floating
(Don't go insane)
Permanent brain freeze
(It's not in your brain)
Laughing like mad children
Swimming in the trees
They lock the door
(Don't be misled)
And throw away the keys
(It's not in your head)
Fit you for a jacket
As they give you your disease
Ahhh
You're missing out on another dream...
