lyrics

THE REAL WORLD LINGERS GRIMLY

Women and men are parts of a creature
That sleeps on the ground at night
It breaks the laws of people and nature
While asleep in the real world at night

The creature is dreaming in its sleep
At work building in rest
What does the unconscious monster reap
Sinking a trowel beneath its flesh

The real world at night lingers grimly
The rememberer of all living things, Death
Comes over the slumberer
And all people stop dreaming forever
