Stand By Lyrics

Lying on his back, there goes another day
You can dream the same dream only so many ways
Asleep, awake, it's all the same
He will never escape the pain
In the clouds his eyes are open wide
Flying through the trees, pushing mountains aside
The ocean resting at his chin
Waiting for the sun to set once again

His mind is run by this machine
Everything is nothing but a dream

Time once again to be fed by a tube
Doesn't need his teeth, he can no longer chew
All the medication pumped inside
Says it's time to take the same old ride
In the middle of the desert beneath a blazing sun
Wind blows pure snowflakes on his tongue
Sailing in the sink, dive down the drain
Up to a manhole on the moon in the rain
His mind is run by this machine
Everything is nothing but a dream
Asleep, awake, it's all the same
He will never escape the pain

It's all the same

His mind is run by this machine
Everything is nothing but a dream
Asleep, awake, it's all the same
He will never escape the pain
