Houseplant Junkie - Kate's Dream

I thought I was dreaming
But then I woke up
I thought I was asleep
But this is real

Believe nothing here is what it seems
The world is your mind
You can see
What makes life different than dreams
What makes life different than dreams
Everything you see
Is what you perceive
This world is a dream
This world is a dream

Nothing is real
I woke up afraid
I'm awake
I'm afraid

Wake up and dream with me
Wake up
Wake up

I remember this one time I was talking to my friend Kate
And she said I had this really vivid dream a while ago
Where I was trying to run really far through sand
What were you running to, I asked
I have no idea, she replied, I just remember endless dunes
But I wasn't getting closer to them at all
I understood I think
I wonder if endless sand dunes is our experience of time
Seemingly endless
Stretching far behind us
And unthinkably far in front of us
From before our time until after the earth is consumed by that giant star in the sky
There is endless time
Stretching like dunes in all directions
And so I thought
Should I stop running toward those dunes
Should I take off my shoes and walk at a more comfortable pace
What if I sit down and rest
The sun is hot and I'm starting to get tired
I'm not going to reach those dunes before nightfall
And then I'll have to sleep
Sleep, wake
As I sat on my couch
Imagining the dunes stretching like space
Reaching up toward that low, hot sun
I tried to imagine music drifting up from beneath the sand
And as I lay down
With my ear pressed to the ground
I began to hear
Singing

Life is a strange kinda dream you can sleep in
Numbers on the clock, no meaning, just repeating
Life is a strange kinda dream you can control
When we wake up then we're one with the cosmos

Life is a strange kinda dream you can sleep in
Numbers on the clock, no meaning, just repeating
Life is a strange kinda dream you can control
When we wake up then we're one with the cosmos

Life is a strange kinda dream you can sleep in
Numbers on the clock, no meaning, just repeating
Life is a strange kinda dream you can control
When we wake up then we're one with the cosmos
