             C   C/B   Am
I've woken again in an ocean of salt
                Em
Drenched from recurring
Am             F
Dreams of such horror
     G
They haunt my evenings

[Verse 1]
C                           Am
Nightmares of a future so absurd
     F                             G
This fantasy of events could never occur
C                      Am
Such vivid imagery has me
             F
Blurring all kinds of lines
        G
Between here and reality

C                                   Am
Billboards have replaced all window panes
F                                  G
Faith is less a feeling and more a mandate
C                          Am
Fed up are the sun and the moon
F                              G
They're burning up and leaving soon, soon, soon

[Chorus 1]
Am               Dm
My twisted imagination
                     F      E5-D5
It has a mind of its own
   C                 G
So wake me from this dream
Am                   Dm
My crooked precognition
Dm                          F      E5-D5
Its distance from the truth grows
       C                 G    F
Please wake me from this dream

[Verse 2]
C                                 Am
Where there's an answer for everything
       F
Hiding behind child-proof plastic locks
G
And under cotton swabs
C                            Am
There's a medicine for every ill
       F
If the money's right
                                      G
The pain can be drowned with a bitter pill

C                       Am
All the women are paper thin
      F                          G
Their necks barely hold up their heads
C
Boys have been trained
                   Am
And prepared since birth
               F
To serve their role
                      G
And fight until their death, death, death

[Bridge]
E5               A5
It's only a fabrication
D5                     G5
This place is all in my head
E5               A5
It's only a fabrication

         C    C/B  Am
I rub my eyes to find
 
This whole time
Em          Am       F
I thought I was in a slumber
G                 C
They've been open wide
