Fever Dreams

The day begins and all is calm
Children playing on the lawn
Their Mother brews a pot of tea
But things are not as they seem to be
By the naked eye all is well
At least as far as they can tell
There's things afoot up the stairs
Far away from the children's cares

Instrumental

I stumble down the oaken case
I lose all sense of time and space
It all surrounds me as black as night
I feel the pull but I cannot fight
I cannot move, I cannot speak
My throat is dry, and my knees are weak

As I awake from fever dreams
I can't believe where I have been
Something has come over me
I'm not the man I used to be

Instrumental

Tumbling and falling inside myself
Like a toy falling from a shelf
Although fear it grips my soul
There's something else that takes control

Instrumental

Spinning orbs of blue and green
The likes of which we've never seen
Comets swirling though the night
Just as moths drawn to the light
Oh, oh, the sound

The humming sounds of the universe
Sound so sweet in rhyme and in verse
Oh so grand it cannot be
It all once fit in a cup of tea
Oh, oh, the sound
Oh, oh, the sound

Instrumental

Wind and water, earth and sky
Disappear before my eyes
Moving faster, to the light
I must resist with all my might
Push and pull, pleasure and pain
I must escape this astral plane
Oh, yeah

Instrumental

As I awoke from fever dreams
I'm not the man I used to be
