Dreamt This Was A Castle

I dreamt this was a castle.
I was stuck by the washing machine.
You slept by the television.
Somehow, I couldn’t sleep.

Eventually you woke up and I apologized.
You asked me over next to you.
I stared at the static lines.
Your ability to terrify just one lofty night

I tried to move, I tried to sit tight,
But in dreams you can never run.
You said, “I think I like this.”
I said nothing.

I was shocked, I just stared at the room.
The TV flashed those static lines.
The room became such a confusing place,
As if I didn’t know.

Driving along the highway we laughed
But I can’t remember where.
You said, “I think I like this.”
I said nothing. I was shocked.

The TV flashed those static lines.
