Eh, I picked this song, due to an incredibly vivid dream I had. It was pretty...wonderful, on the whole. In fact, I much preferred that dream to real life and tried to stay asleep for as long as possible. I mean, it was the sort of vividness that I think it was supposed to mean something, whether it was a guide to the future or something else, I felt it was more than just a dream you know? Also, my brother was in it, and I can't say he often makes guest appearances in my dreams, so...it was just...lovely.
Dreaming - Loudon Wainwright III
I'd rather be dreaming than living
Living's just too hard to do
It's chances not choices
Noises not voices
A day's just a thing to get through
Living's just too hard to do
I'd rather be dreaming than talking
There's nothing to hear or to say
With ears covered mouth closed
The world is opposed
Nothing gets in or away
There's nothing to hear or to say
I'd rather be dreaming than thinking
Thoughts are small comfort to me
Dreams might be pretend
But at least dreams end
And I just can't stop thinking you see
Thoughts are small comfort to me
I'd rather be dreaming than sleeping
Just sleeping you're just as well dead
In dreams I can fly
In dreams I don't die
That's why I lie here in this bed
Just sleeping you're just as well dead
I'd rather be dreaming
