There's a naked woman in my dreams
And I want her, 'cause my brain made her
There's a beauty, warming in my sheets
And I want her, 'cause my brain made her

Wake up every day, restless, wondering why
That she could never be with an awake guy

There's an ancient ocean under me
And I'm haunted by the inhabitants
All the mermaids laugh and call me names
'Cause I can't swim like their fancy friends (like their fancy friends)

Get up every day, clueless, wondering why
If I could only wake (wake) rested once or twice
That'd be nice

Each and every night, got a subconscious life
Each and every night, I've got a subconscious life

No book, no pill, no fancy alcohol
Is gonna curb me from imaginary late night brawls

There's a homemade army of machines
And they're marching on my battlefield
Hoards of ancient electricities
Kidnap brain waves, electrocuting me

There's no other way, gonna have to stay up really late
Or risk another underwater no show date

Yeah, each and every night, I've got a subconscious life
Each and every night, I've got a subconscious life

No I just can't control my dreams, baby
No I just can't control my dreams, baby
No I just can't control my dreams, baby
