"everything is alright" you said

"it was all just a joke" you smiled

and I felt happy, I felt released

but as I woke this dream did cease



yet Carcassonne was never so far

Sandra and a swastika



it's all so dog damned real

your words cut me down

wake me when it's over



I see you in the mirror lying naked on the bed

you closed your eyes and dreams take you away



"everything is alright" she said

"it was only a joke" she laughed

I felt so happy, I felt released

but as I woke the dream deceived



I mess up the days of the week

the radio rocks me to poisoned sleep



I see you in the mirror lying naked on the bed

you closed your eyes and dreams take you away

why do I so often think about what could have been

when it is not

it all just sounds like Nine While Nine
