Just A Thought


What if I'm in a coma? What if you're all a dream? What if this glowering world is mine? I built it fast asleep Then that means that all these evils Exist inside my head I've slaughtered trillions, never blinked Never a tear was shed Every accident or wreck Or every genocide I've tumbled every empire With the devil by my side It also means that all these martyrs Heroes, great and small Were born from thoughts within my mind. I've built them to stand tall I've tutored every fallen child I've ended every war I've brought down tyrants, bearing palms I've fed the starving poor If I'm the one running this place I think I've done alright One question: where do I go When I'm asleep at night?
