Even in my dreams
There are no angels in the sky
Just sparks from all the dying stars
And there are no mermaids in the seas
Just sinking men with too many scars
Afraid of their tears
Even in my dreams
There are no mountains I can climb,
just dark holes to hide myself in
And there are no fireflies to chase,
just burning ashes of what has been
Things I can’t erase
Even in my dreams
There’s no such thing as make-believe,
just fantasies of all the weak
And there is no hope in fairy-tales,
just a truth that no-one can speak
When all knowledge fails
Even in my dreams
There are no dragons I can slay,
just monsters that I can’t escape
And dreams, well they never come true,
just nightmares from which I can’t wake
Even in my dreams
I am through.
Damn, this is quite heavy to digest.
