altered state - thinkin' about movin' to a catatonic state lyrics

daylight comes like an unwelcome friend that wakes me from my sleep
to dream of life without storms or pain, will i ever find that heaven again (?)

oh mother pray for me to find that place
where the birds are singing and i wear a happy face as i greet another brilliant day
i’m okay, i’m okay, i’m okay

’cause i’m thinkin’ ’bout movin’ to a catatonic state

i talk to the sky, god help me (!)
i can’t stop my daydreams
i feel like pulling out my brain before it hammers me again
i’m gonna put it under glass then it will answer what i ask and not attack

’cause i’m thinkin’ ’bout movin’ to a catatonic state

if i were a clue would i understand me (?)
(if i only had a clue…..)
if i were the truth would i lie to test me (?)
(if i only knew what the truth is….)

i used to believe that 2+2=4, that the good guys always won, and of the miracles in store but then i lost my way where i had never been before, and she’s gone

i’m not afraid to look at myself, but a trial by fire isn’t good for the health
my guiding light left me blind and burned, between insanity and knowledge
i’m not sure what’s worse (?) (!)
well i’m, not gonna listen to the ones that school me
i’m not gonna listen to the ones that rule me
i’m not gonna listen to the ones that screw me hard, they don’t even buy you a drink first

yeah, they’re so sweet and nondescript, but if you fall down they’ll tear and rip
i think you let your true self slip
you didn’t mean to that did ya (?) (!) (?)

things have got to change

(suddenly, a phone rings somewhere in the dark and scary ride that is ever’s mind…he answers it and says…..)

“h+llo”

“may i speak with ever cleer please?”

“speaking.”

“well, i’m calling from hollywood, california and i want to congratulate you because you’ve just won everything you could ever hope for! but don’t worry, we’re not gonna bore you with just any old prize, no sir! because you’ve won the grand poobah of all things obtainable in the universe, something you’re never gonna see on the “lifestyles of the rich and famous”, and that is, infinite wisdom, understanding, and peace of mind!!!!!!! imagine the look of surprise on the faces of your family and friends when they see that you’ve won total contentment!!!!!! but wait! that’s not all! as an extra added bonus, you’re……….”

buzzzzz!!!!!! (the morning alarm goes off…)
“huh?……oh……….i was dreaming….”

it’s times like this, both day and night
i wonder if my sixth+grade teacher was right
he’d sit on my head and then he’d scream, “you’ll never amount to anything!!!!!”
it’s like the telephone, i mean i have a feeling of being disconnected, there’s a ringing in my ears and no one can answer it (can answer it)

oh, what’s the point of even trying
if it’s sh+t you know i’ll buy it
i’m the king of all that’s broken
i’m the mute when all is spoken
i feel awkward and imploding
please forgive me i’m eroding

goodbye little boy, thought the world was a great big toy
see what your innocence gave you
goodbye little man, you thought you could now you know you can’t
see how your life played you?

goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

and i’m thinkin’ about movin’ to a catatonic state
