Creepy isnt it?SleepWalking.I mean,you never know where you'd end up.You might end up in the toilet with your head in the toilet bowl.You might end up in the kitchen with half your breakfast already done.You might end up at the side of the road at 4am with no cars on the road.You might end up on a bus in your pajamas and allowing the bus to take you to anywhere.

Personally,Ive never sleepwalked.At least my mom never told me about it,and i never realised it.But i had a dream last night,where the lift broke down and i had to jump off my balcony with nothing but my umbrella.What if i sleepwalked during that dream?Isnt that scary.I could wake up in the middle of the night on the ledge and not knowing it.But then again,i never sleepwalked.I hope i never sleepwalk.It is a creepy thought indeed.

The lyrics above are from The WallFlowers' song.Its called "SleepWalkers",and i found that part of the song particularly meaningful.Fine,maybe its not.But to me it is inspiring in a way.Imagine we are all SleepWalkers,and we are able to sleepwalk in our dreams at night.Just imagine a scene from "The Night of the Living Dead" when all the zombies crawls out of their tombs and haunts the city.Well,instead of zombies you get us.Instead of tombs you get beds.Instead of haunting the city you get people wandering around the streets aimlessly in a daze.In a dream.Sleepwalking.I wish i could sleepwalk into somebody's dream.I mean,wouldnt that be a whole new different adventure of a sort?Its a totally different medium from where we live in,and for some reason it seems like an adventure to me.If i SleepWalk into Samuel's mind right now,it might be filled with Sumo wrestlers practising Judo on top of his textbooks and notes.And most importantly,comics.If i walk into my father's dream i might see cheques and notes walking about and shouting out to each other in monetary terms.Hmm.Or perhaps Corinna's dream where everybody's shorter than her and she starts calling me a "Little Boy"(I had to do it.I had to do it!)Well,a dream is a dream,and its interesting to visit.Wonder how it would be like to stray into her dreams.

Just like the lyrics,straying into your dreams as a SleepWalker might just be the best thing in the world.I get to know what you are thinking and what you are dreaming about.And being in your head is like being in your movie,where the script is already written for me to follow,and i am the amateur actor trying hard to impress.I try and try as i performed my best scene upon the stage in your head,but you never bothered to watch.I could hear you laughing,i could hear your giggling.But they are no more than a laugh track played over and over after every move that i made.After a while,my so called "Best Scene" doesnt matter to you anymore.Because whatever you saw or heard is no more than a fake laughter and an artificial giggle.

Laugh Track
Recorded laughter added to a soundtrack, as of a television or radio show.

Yeah,those laughters you hear during sitcoms and television shows.Some jokes are just not funny to the audience,but we are supposed to laugh.So normally the producers of the shows would add the so called "Laugh Tracks" to the soundtrack itself.

As i strayed into your dreams,my best scene was performed and no one gave a shit.So i left your dream and seized to be a sleepwalker anymore.I sleep alone at night,without myself climbing out of bed,without myself straying into dreams,without myself going back to bed with no knowledge of what i just did.My mind remains blank at night,and even in the day.And all those happens subconscienciously.I find myself a much more boring person without myself thinking about you.I find myself a much more incomplete person when i dont bother about you,or burden myself with thoughts and regrets.It might be the best thing to do,it might be the best way to walk.But for some reason those lack of regrets and thoughts are making my dreams blank at night.And as i stray into my own dreams at night as my own sleepwalker i get scared of the emptiness and nothingness of the world amidst my mind.

If you are the SleepWalker,what would you see?

SleepWalking,what a scary thing.I might just sleepwalk onto the road.I might just sleepwalk onto the ledge.I might just sleepwalk into my nightmare.But does anybody care?

I'm in your movie and everyone looks sad.
But i can hear you, your voice, the laughtrack.
But you never saw my best scene,
The one where i sleep,
Sleepwalk into your dreams...
