Is this a planet of life?
Then why do people die?
This is not life, this is death.
Can’t you understand?

You’re only dreaming.
You’re not real here.
You’re only dreaming
      you did all the things
      you did before you died.

You’re asleep.
Wake up before it’s too late
    and you die in a dream.

This world is not the real world.
It’s all illusion. It’s not real.
Can’t you feel that this world is not real?
Someone cast a magic spell
      on the people of planet Earth.

If you do right they put you in jail.
If you do wrong they put you in jail.
You can’t win.
You got to do something else.
You got to get away from here.

You make death your master.
You’re not free.
If you’re free, why do you bow to death?
Is that what you mean by liberty?
Stop bowing down to your master called death.
If you’re free, prove it.
