The Dream

[Verse] A sudden rise like a sunrise of troubled subtle vibes Like sly spies behind disguised eyes that try and hide the pain of a thousand lives A thousand tries with the pain of a thousand knives [Chorus] Vows and lies as flowers die Clear insight as I peer inside Fear's in sight as I hold tight Afraid of losing what I hold dearest, I'll never part I keep it nearest to my heart till the day my body turns to mere dust and I fall apart [Verse 2] I start to understand how I fear trust as I begin to tear up I do my best to cheer up but the pain inside my chest won't clear up Like a shy bird forgetting his wings, I hurt from thoughts of upsetting things Echoing screams like ghostly beings from harrowing scenes in broken dreams Still images in time like frozen streams in my mind behind open seams [Chorus] Vows and lies as flowers die Clear insight as I peer inside Fear's in sight as I hold tight Afraid of losing what I hold dearest, I'll never part I keep it nearest to my heart till the day my body turns to mere dust and I fall apart [Bridge] Nothing's ever quite what it seems We're the director and our mind is a projector while the world is a screen We exist here in between the past that's gone and the future that's unforeseen
