Verse 1
Split down the middle - you see it both ways
Your dreams are too real - on continuous play
As you fall asleep - it starts again,
you wake to realize it was a dream
What happened to your conscience -
what happened to the stream

Chorus	

1 - 2 - 3   You count the sheep to see
if you come up with the same number
One more time you hit pause - rewind
to return to your alternate slumber

Verse 2
If you think about your other life, you can't believe its true
Riding the blue line bus every day, thats you
No suit, no car, no palace in the sky
But when you wake you swear the blue line was a lie

Bridge
Your reason to be has slipped between the sheets
and now you're all caught up in the confusion
Counting sheep after sheep and now the number is steep
Your old life has found a new one

Verse 3
Long, long day of talk and martinis
Sun slips away, you feel the squeeze
From dizzy thoughts of truth or nots -
Mercedes swerve and you know why
Cause when you wake you'll swear
the Mercedes was a lie
