I dreamed I was being kept alive   To bear the brunt of a family joke   About which no one spoke      To multiply and divide   This hideous thing, this human kind   With something else on his mind      I was going to bed   You were saying, "i do"   Then I lost my head      Chorus:   When I awoke   I was living this secret life   Complete with a secret dog   And a secret wife   In another zone   Address unknown   This secret life   This secret life      And I am chilled to be here   Among these ghosts so heaven-bent   With hell to pay for rent      When I am holding you near   I'm not so sure this world is real   I'm not sure how I feel      And I was going to say   "not a whisper, dear"   Then I drifted away      Chorus      Come out, come out   Wherever you are   You look so near   You seem so far   This scale's messed up   The angle's wrong   Your day will come   Meanwhile, the night is long      Chorus
