Velvet Dreams

I wipe the dust from my shoulders
The dust from velvet sands
In dreamland of non-divine
Free of all space and time

I watch across the fields
The fields of forever
And as the sand turns to stars
In my eyes, I'm no longer blind

Start to walk through the landscapes of frozen glass
The velvet sands reflect me like a mirror
My skin is pale blue but feel my body burning with fever
I see myself through the velvet sand
What am I, human, soul or demon?

Embodied emotions, infinite
Eternal sleep awaits me
As I am dreaming velvet dreams
Crying purple tears, I change

Laughter turns to hate
Blood-drowned are my thoughts
The rainbow turns all red, I burn
I'm in fire, burned by velvet dreams

I stole through the infinite garden of never-ending frost
Unblessed, unpure, here I am, my own god and master
Everything is soft like velvet
But the velvet dreams obscure my mind
I pick a rose so black, but I am scared by the thorns
And it feels like I was in fire

Burned by velvet dreams
I'm enshrouded by its desire
Burned by velvet dreams
That seems so safe

Bless me, caress me, take away my fears
Through the pain in velvet dreams
Wipe away my purple tears
Burn me, turn me, make me one with the other side
Healed by the burning in velvet dreams
With the dead now I ride
Burned

Embodied emotions, infinite
Sleep awaits me no longer
Nevermore shall I dream those velvet dreams
Cry those purple tears

Never, nevermore
I stand above divine, God of none and all
Knowledge beyond the rainbow and the stars
Nevermore shall I dream those velvet dreams
Cry those purple tears

Never nevermore
I stand above divine, God of all and none
Knowledge beyond, the rainbow and the stars
Now I am the unknown that you love
God of none and all
Now I am the unknown that you love
God of none and all
