Alternate Universe

Phantom lights
Distorted nights
Fighting the dream beyond
Shades of white
Transposed delight
Fading on and on and on…

Underneath the darkness
Parallel with time
In between time —
Ever-expanding
Beyond reason
Beyond time

Denying physical reason
Confusing emotional seasons
It can take you for a spin
And you won’t know where you’ve been
Mind in reverse
Mind imprisoned
Alternate universe

Constant sea
Galactic breeze
Fighting the storm ahead
Fade to black
Off the beaten track
Sailing on and on and on…

Caught in the darkness
Exposed to the light
In between light
Ever-confined
In time
Beyond time

We imagine what it’s like
To be somewhere else
When we don’t like where we are
We imagine what it’s like
To be someone else
When we don’t like who we are…
