The blanket of the world It covers me like a cloud Its taken everything And now its dark and cold My dreams of ecstasy Crumble on the ground Screams they fall asleep But never make a sound My hopes and all my dreaming Its keeping me alive And we go on and on Seems that we all live our lives Stapled to machinery If we live till the dawn Well tear at stitches burned And become what we want to be We go on and on and on I see through others eyes Reality a ghost It happens day and night I know Im not alone And though I can succeed At something we all hate Accept the daily grind (no) It won't become my fate My hopes and all my dreaming Its keeping me alive Under the blanket of the world And we go on and on Seems that we all live our lives Stapled to machinery If we live till the dawn Well tear at stitches burned And become what we want to be We go on and on and on
