Mad Gleams - The Dream / Sweep It Under the Rug Lyrics

Fifteen years
And I still dream
About the hallways
And the building in the morning
Waiting for you

Yeah I still dream
Of getting up on a stage
At the gymnasium

And I'm taking off my clothes
And the principal he knows
Just what I'm fixing to do

And I say I have to except the repercussions
But you gotta let me play these drums
I have been practicing

I guess some things
They stick around
As much as we can't figure out
How to hold on
To what is gone
To hold on
To the past

Whether it's here or whether it's by the lake
Or in the car
Driving down the highway
Or the backroads
These thoughts linger on
As if there was something right
That went wrong
I don't know what it is
But I can't stop thinking about it

Standing outside that cabin
Waiting for you to come
Breaking the law breaking the law
In my subdivision

The night I took a hit
And stood out in the front yard and tripped
Oh and the next day I felt like I would never get up
The next day I felt like I would never get up
The next day I felt like I would never get up
Get up

There's times I think I'm haunted
Isn't that what it's called
Can't stop thinking
Can't stop feeling cold
I miss the moments I lost
But what's gone is gone

You might say I was a troubled kid
Lord knows we all had to deal with a lot of shit
You might say I was a trauma kid
We all know we all gotta
We all gotta deal with it
Now
I'm not trying to shirk
No no no no no no I'm
Not tryin' to sweep it under the rug
Sweep it under the rug
Yyou can't sweep it under the rug
You can't sweep it under the rug
You can't
