Distillation

Caught me off guard with a fraudulent smile
Threw me in the back and took my things
So mysterious that I can’t see
The loneliest behavior you couldn’t comprehend
Call it all off and take me back home
Someone switched off the light again
Above it
Below it
Behind it
Dripping up and down
Your halls again
Having trouble breathing
Without your apparatus
I thought you’d stay with me
In the end
Straight back down
Or way back up
It’s never any fun
When you know the end
Wrapped my head around a spring of logic
To find it’s all fake and art is pretend
Call it all off and take me back home
Someone switched off the light again
You sleep to dream
(Sleep to dream)
Your world without war and your rock stars
Your perfect house and your perfect car
You sleep to dream
While I dream of sleep
(Dreaming to sleep)
Of which I cannot find
So I step inside
The sapphire bottle
To deliver the mind
Down to the bottom I go
Shot by shot
My dreams arrive
And this is all over now
I sleep long at last
And this is all over now
Thanks to this bottle
It’s all over now
You dream to sleep but it’s all over now
It’s over now
This song is pretty damn long
And you know you love it
We’ve been dreams from gin
It’s over now
It’s all over now
