Skeleton Key

[Verse 1] Once upon a day dream, An old man came and said to me: “I can give you a key, a key to your dreams What dreams may come, will be your reality.” He said it with a wink and smile The key he left in my hand; worn by a country mile But, before he parted ways, a warning he gave “Careful son, some dreams you should save” [Chorus] I have found a key, a key to my dreams, Doors it will open deep inside of me Now nothing will be, will be as it seems, After finding this skeleton key. [Verse 2] Deep in sleep my mind ran wild Of great things that now could be Then, a cabin appeared to me, looking upon me with a smile And standing by its door, beckoned a fair maiden bathed in white The light in her eyes brighter than the stars in the night All of this was what I wanted and more This dream must end now I was sure But all there was left to do Was to turn that lock and key [Chorus] I have found a key, a key to my dreams, Doors it will open deep inside of me Now nothing will be, will be as it seems, After finding this skeleton key. [Verse 3] Deeper down a worn path I trudged, In a lightening flash the woman had gone Replaced by dream eaters with glowing eyes Was this paradise to be my demise? When I was found the next morning; all color sucked out of me And there, under the pillow, was truly a strange sight to see It was the rusty remains of an old skeleton key [Chorus] I have found a key, a key to my dreams, Doors it will open deep inside of me Now nothing will be, will be as it seems, After finding this skeleton key I found a key, a key to my dreams Now forever locked inside of me Now nothing is as it seems, After finding this skeleton key
