Pillow Case - Eyedea

Now he sleeps with pillow in between his legs

Hoping that his dreams don’t haunt him tonight

But they keep on coming back every day after day

He wonders if he’ll have them for the rest of his life

Now he quit smoking cigarettes three years ago

Just didn’t like the thought of being dead by fifty-three

He don’t miss the head rush from the pack of Marlboros

He’s just thankful that he was able to break free

He loves to sit under the sun and write his songs

Breaking his addiction proved to him he wasn’t weak

But he does still smoke in fact he did all along

The difference is now he only does it in his sleep

And he tries to wake himself when he lights the match

But he has to inhale, he has no control

So he cries, cause he thought he escaped the trap

But it’s a reoccurring nightmare and he wants to know

What is a dream (Something to sleep on)

What is a dream (Something he needs gone)

What is a dream (Something that keeps on)

What is a dream (Just a problem with his head)

What is a dream (Something that speaks strong)

What is a dream (Something that we want)

What is a dream (Something he’ll sleep on)

What is a dream (He doesn’t want to go to bed)

Now he met this young girl around the same time

He dropped his smoking habit and began it in the dreams

He let her in his life because he needed to shine

And she was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen

And he grew three years long, two hearts wide

And immeasurably deep, they were perfect together

And he knew somehow, he felt on the inside

That no matter what the weather it’d be him and her forever

Their hands interlocked 'till the end of routine

He would never break her heart because the love is so real

And he can’t seem to stop having these dreams

Where he solemnly commits adultery against his will

And he tries to wake himself because he loves his girl

But he has to take it all, he has no control

So he cries 'till he’s out of his subconscious world

It’s a reoccurring nightmare and he wants to know

What is a dream (Something to sleep on)

What is a dream (Something he needs gone)

What is a dream (Something that keeps on)

What is a dream (Just a problem with his head)

What is a dream (Something that speaks strong)

What is a dream (Something that we want)

What is a dream (Something he’ll sleep on)

What is a dream (He doesn’t want to go to bed)

Now he bought a couple books to help him understand

What was going on on the inside of his brain

He thought if it persisted he may lose his stance

And was told that was step one to going insane

Every night it’s the same, either one of the two

Lighting up a cigarette or cheating on his woman

And he fights constantly in his head what to do

Cause what he does in his dreams, in real life he wouldn’t

No control, makes him skeptic of everything else

He don’t trust himself cause dreams can come true

His soul is agitated from its image itself

And he wants to be happy but don’t know what he’s gotta do

So he walked one day, through the woods for miles

With the waterfall below he stood at the edge of a cliff

When he talked, he heard an echo so he exhaled his Marlboro, grabbed his dick

and screamed

Dreams are bullshit

Dreams are bullshit

Dreams are bullshit

Dreams are bullshit

Dreams are bullshit

What is a dream

Dreams are bullshit (x10)
