I Was Wide Awake and They Were Screaming

Follow that wit.
Go fly with the angels.
Settle that shit.
Let’s die slowly with a flanger.

Do I really mean it, Life?
It is something you just don’t understand.
You have to give up, to take a stand.

I once had a dream about dreaming.
Now, does this make me a dreamer? 

I’m a stranger at the podium.
I was wide awake and they were screaming.
