Dream City

Been a week no change yet
No sign of life
Sirens cry like a dying light
Whispers moan out in the wind high on a silent night
Black skies with a red moon
Dark roads to imminent doom
Living the feeling of blue and colorless blooms
I shuffle through piles of ashes, suffer the smoke
Cut from the blankets of steel
The rope that is tied to my neck is to end it whenever I feel
Make it disappear
I hope that the visions were real and the mission is feasible
Keeping the people alive
Either I'm living a lie
Or dying to give it a try
Can never decide

But when I'm sleeping I can see
Get to peek behind the curtains
See a different side of me
In a world that's full of green trees
That I cannot believe
'Cause I wake up, then it's back to reality

Gotta keep my feet moving and my eyes up
Until a leaf's moving or I'm dried up
Because time is all that I got left
On this dichotomic conquest
A bit complex to unfold
Shown where the light goes every night, though
I'm still a lost soul on my own
I just wanna go home
I don't wanna be alone
If I wrote a happy song now
Then who would sing a long with me?
Guess this is how its gotta be
I just wish that I could float away
'Cause I'm in pain, I'm in pain
Missing better days
Make it all go away
Or just show your face
Don't keep me waiting
I've been taking all that I can take
My spirit's breaking
Please just help me make it out this place
I pray to you, God

But when I'm sleeping I can see
Get to peek behind the curtains
See a different side of me
In a world that's full of green trees
That I cannot believe
'Cause I wake up, then it's back to reality

Just take me back to where I used to know
Everything that I was holding close
It just slipped away with all my hope
In a minute I'm going home
Can anybody hear me?
Is there anybody listening?

But when I'm sleeping I'm seeing you, God
Keeping me moving
I feel your hand in the beat of my heart
But when I'm sleeping I'm seeing you, God
Keeping me moving
I feel your hand in the beat of my heart
