Only A Dream

Colors are dull on a day like today
Voices buzzing a monotonous tone
With bitter tastes on the back of your tongue
The scent of mold in the dank morning air
All feelings internal, the world's a dream

It's only a dream
Compared to the dreams you dream as you sleep
The colors are dull
Compared to the rainbow you've fallen from
Sounds are just noises
But sounds were once songs and silence was crisp
Tasting bitterness
Instead of a sweetness, cleaner than ice
The scents are all foul
Compared to those smells you loved as a child
Your nerves are all dead
After feeling the breeze of a dream
A touch from your past
The reality of an illusion

It's only a dream
This world we're in
Compared to the dreams you dream as you sleep
You are still dreaming
Feelings internal
Compared to the dreams you dream as you sleep
It's only a dream
