irl - Mr. Dream Lyrics

The work's on the table
R.E.M. has enabled
Circadian ecstasy
The crickets and beetles
They take out the needles
That keep you from me
Insomnia's unfavorable
Count sheep if you're able to
No sense in seeing
And at the back of the class
A kid's on his last
Before he drifts off to sleep
You've never met him but he knows you
They call him Mr. Dream
And he'll help you find
What you're looking for
He'll show to you what you need
Oh Mr. Dream
Time that's been burned
Now déjà vu's all I've earned
We're nothing but pillows and sheets
The cat's in the bag
Mr. Dream's all we have
A lullaby for you and me
You've never met him but he knows you
They call him Mr. Dream
And he'll help you find
What you're looking for
He'll get to you what you need
You've never met him but he knows you
They call him Mr. Dream
And he'll help you find
What you're looking for
He'll show to you what you need
Oh Mr. Dream

The work's on the table
R.E.M. has enabled
Circadian ecstasy
The crickets and beetles
They take out the needles
That keep you from me
Insomnia's unfavorable
Count sheep if you're able to
No sense in seeing
And at the back of the class
A kid's on his last
Before he drifts off to sleep
You've never met him but he knows you
They call him Mr. Dream
And he'll help you find
What you're looking for
He'll show to you what you need
Oh Mr. Dream
Time that's been burned
Now déjà vu's all I've earned
We're nothing but pillows and sheets
The cat's in the bag
Mr. Dream's all we have
A lullaby for you and me
You've never met him but he knows you
They call him Mr. Dream
And he'll help you find
What you're looking for
He'll get to you what you need
You've never met him but he knows you
They call him Mr. Dream
And he'll help you find
What you're looking for
He'll show to you what you need
Oh Mr. Dream
