Just close my eyes and enter the world
my brain has created only for me
Where the white rabbit can’t decide which way to go,
so he just moves in every direction at once
Where the omnipresent voice inside my head
is finally put on silent
and no one tries to hurt my heart
Where all my problems and responsibilities
have dissolved into nothing
and I can just be
The world in my dreams doesn’t make any sense
but neither does the real world,
so what does it matter?
If you really think about it,
real life is much more absurd
than any dream you could ever have
Just imagine the you from your dreams
suddenly finding themselves on Planet Earth,
in between wars, intrigues and greediness
Why are they all behaving this way?, your dream self asks
Do you have an answer to explain it to yourself?
Whenever I’m dreaming, my current life stops existing to me
or maybe even to anyone at all
Every time I fall asleep, I die
In my dream world, I instead relive everything I remember
from my past and my future
All these precious memories
that my brain has worked hard to separate
from the pain and suffering connected to them
So wonderful, so peaceful
As a child, you were always so carefree
and your entire childhood used to be just like a perfect dream without any hardships
Don’t you remember?
Wouldn’t you like to go back to that time
and to the person you used to be?
Wouldn’t you like to just leave your complicated life behind?
You can if you want to
Just stay here with me forever
and live your very own perfect dream life
Home?
What about home?
I don’t know what you mean
This is home now
What used to be my home in the real world
doesn’t matter to me here and now
I don’t care about where I was born and raised,
or where I will die one day,
because my brain is all of these things for me as well:
My birthplace, my home and my grave
As an eternal galaxy of its own,
my brain is everything I really am
and everything that actually exists to me,
my physical body and what’s known to you
as the real world are nothing more
than a disguise for what’s beyond our basic
visual and haptic perception,
a much deeper consciousness of everlasting existence
Physical matters don’t mean anything to me at all,
because I now know that they’re merely
a three-dimensional projection,
a simulation to hold us captive
and make us believe that it’s the dream world that is fake and unrealistic in its nature,
to keep us from trying to stay inside our dream worlds forever
But I have now found my truth and the place where I belong:
Where I want to be is within me
Where I need to be is me
I myself am my only home
People who have died on Planet Earth
still exist in the dream world,
because they are never actually gone
from your memories and from your heart
It’s a cruel act to take somebody away from your life forever
with no way of ever getting them back,
or for a concept like a limited lifetime
and the awareness of an eventual death
to even exist at all
Have you ever thought about how odd it is
that everybody will have to die one day
and how this fact just seems like the orderly reality for us?
Have you ever asked yourself where people go after they die,
or if they even go anywhere at all?
(reversed)
Heaven? Hell? Reincarnation? Oblivion? What do you believe in?
In a galaxy that’s said to be as spacious as ours,
don’t you find it strange that after a certain amount of time,
each of us will have to leave again?
The dream world works entirely different:
There’s no expiry date for you,
or for anybody and anything else,
and no earthly limitations like the ones
you have learned to know all these years
Everything here is forever
And with the countless possibilities
of what you can do and have control over,
you become the god of your very own flawless world
Wait...
Do you want to wake up?
Do you really want to leave this place?
If you ask me,
I would never want to leave here
Imagine how great it would be to be trapped
inside an eternal dream forever
No way of escaping,
because there’s no reason you would ever want to escape
Because this is the perfect world
I really never want to stop dreaming...
Will you stay here dreaming with me?
