Awake in Dreams

See all the boxes stacked up, from the ground to the sky
The spheres roll around, too independent to bind
The lines stretching out, map the outer space
Dots at the ends, even clocks can’t escape
Sleeping in reality, awake in dreams
Find a new order, learn how to see
Sixty four steps, nine levels up and down
Seven rings to hear, a dozen will surround
All these ideas, of space and time
Twisting around, hiding the signs
Call it coincidence, a fate you’ve found
A dream in silence, the path you’ve sewn
Sleeping in reality, awake in dreams
Find a new order, learn how to see
Sixty four steps, nine levels up and down
Seven rings to hear, a dozen will surround
Some go straight ahead, only snakes on the trail
Others full of curves, riding on the rails
Some are so steep, you’re afraid that you’ll fall
Even when you do, the lotus will stall
Sleeping in reality, awake in dreams
Find a new order, learn how to see
Sixty four steps, nine levels up and down
Seven rings to hear, a dozen will surround
When all’s going fine, be ready for attack
Master of disguise, lots of tricks, get you back
Nothing you can do, the same old scene
Repetitive clues, the dragons in dreams
Sleeping in reality, awake in dreams
Find a new order, learn how to see
Sixty four steps, nine levels up and down
Seven rings to hear, a dozen will surround
