...I'd rather be dreaming than living...
...living's just too hard to do...
...chances not choises...
...noises not voices...
...a day's just a thing to get through...
...living's just too hard to do...

...dreams might be pretend...
...but at least dreams end...
...I just can't stop thinking, you see...
...thought's a small comfort to me...

...there's nothing to hear or to say...
...with ears covered, mouth closed...
...the world is opposed...
...nothing gets in or away...
...there's nothing to hear or to say...
