lyrics

[Verse 1: blackwinterwells]
It's like a lucid dream
The trees wave back to me
I close my eyes and breathe

[Verse 2: blackwinterwells]
A soft refreshing breeze
Smiles, cloudy teeth
I stumble through the leaves

[Chorus: blackwinterwells]
And I can't reconcile that the world isn't how I imagined
When I open my eyes in this desolate gray concrete prison
Just rectangles and smoke when the leaves are all that I've been missing
Let me go back to sleep where I'm friends with the trees, it feels different
[Verse 3: Nelward]
The more you see my face
The more I am amazed
At cracking mirrors and creeping fears
Can you hear my testimony?

[Verse 4: Nelward]
I wish there was a way
To see you every d-
Where's the punchline in my joke?
Gingerbread man with the limbs all falling off

[Verse 5: Nelward]
Will you still call my name?
In some old fashioned way
I wanna gift you dreams, simple figurines
But now I pass the time inside a screen

[Chorus: blackwinterwells]
And I can't reconcile that the world isn't how I imagined
When I open my eyes in this desolate gray concrete prison
Just rectangles and smoke when the leaves are all that I've been missing
Let me go back to sleep where I'm friends with the trees, it feels different
