Exhale - The Lizard Lyrics

You lookin' for shade, aye, I'm lookin' for shadow
You lookin' for shade, aye, I'm lookin' for shadow
You lookin' for shade, aye, I'm lookin' for shadow
You lookin' for shade, aye, I'm lookin' for shadow

Baby, will you dream with me
Travel across the stars
Beyond the place of time and space
There live dreams from afar

My saddest times just catalyse my passion as my tragedies transform into my masterpiece
Got a plan of action, but I'm passive as I let life pass me faster than I'm passin' weed
Don't mean to be dramatic, but too anxious to go grasp and sieze
Instead just take the backseat and relapse into a land of dreams
But this crazy road is all I know, it's always been the path for me
Don't mind the fact I'm damaged, man, I had to be, I'm tryna capture more than what the camera see
That ambition's taxing, man, it's actually what keeps me in my head
I spend all my time alive on how they see me when I'm dead
So I find myself run back to the comfort of my fantasy
Hit the backseat and relapse into a land of dreams

Baby, will you dream with me
Travel across the stars
Beyond the place of time and space
There live dreams from afar
Baby, will you dream with me
Travel across the stars
Beyond the place of time and space
There live dreams from afar

The Lizard sat lolling himself in the shadow of a big rock, shading himself from the desert sun
Snake crawled by, looking for somewhere to coil up and rest
Snake watched Lizard for a while as his eyeballs went side to side behind his enormous closed lids
Snake hissed to get Lizard's attention
Slowly, Lizard's dreaming eyes opened up and he saw Snake
"Snake! You scared me! What do you want?" Lizard cried
Snake spit his answer from his forked tongue
"You are always getting the best spots in the heat of day
This is the only big rock for miles. Why don't you share your shade with me?"
Lizard thought for a moment, then agreed
"Snake, you can share my shade spot
But you have to go to the other side of the rock and you must promise not to interrupt me"
Snake was getting annoyed. He hissed
"How could I bother you, Lizard? All you are doing is sleeping"
Lizard smiled knowingly. "Oh Snake, you are such a silly serpent. I'm not sleeping, I'm dreaming"
Snake wanted to know what the difference was, so Lizard explained
"Dreaming is going into the future, Snake
I go to where future lives. You see, that is why I know you won't eat me today
I dreamed you and I know you are full of mouse"
Snake was taken aback
"Why Lizard, you are exactly right. I wondered why you said you would let me share your rock"
Lizard laughed to himself. "Snake," he said
"You are looking for shade and I am looking for the shadow
Shadow is where the dreams live"
(Shadow is where the dreams live)
Shadow is where the dreams live
