Denouement - Late Night, Dream-Deprived Lyrics

I've never seen myself from
The perspective of the third-person
When you've been awake for five days straight
You see your life distantly

That lofty, weightless feeling
Head drifting at thirty-thousand feet
Diminishes problems
Keeps us up and away from our dreams

I've been walking in my sleep
The sheep stopped counting me long ago
Let's trance away our days
To a lullaby that's loud and pummeling

Try not to feel too frightened
Nightmares disguise themselves as ambition
The lurking specter of success
Pursues its prey in schools and companies

That lofty, weightless feeling
Head drifting at thirty-thousand feet
Diminishes problems
Keeps us up and away from our dreams

I've been walking in my sleep
The sheep stopped counting me long ago
Let's trance away our days
To a lullaby that's loud and pummeling
