I Am Shaking Off a Dream

I'm staring at the sky
At ships passing in the night

I'm shuffling my feet
I'm waiting for a sign

I'm watching colors smear
And blur and blend and disappear

Sand threads the time in double-time
I just stand here waiting

Into the room I drift towards peril and it feels good
Good to give up
Good to fuck up

I'm walking out onto the wing
Into the wild never-ending
In a dream within a dream

Scattering yards of yarn and string
Had somebody got their claws in me?
Was I the cat that got the cream?

Twilight
Evil
Inspiration
Lilac in bloom
Under the strawberry moon

If you left it up to me
I think that I'd go quietly
I thought I had no fear at all, now it's all that I am

But I'm shaking off a dream
Where I march into the sea
Where I walk on until the end of where the fading light can reach

I don't wanna be wasted air
I don't wanna be wasted in the moonlight again
I don't wanna be singing songs
And strumming chords
They come out wrong
A brute
A bore
An eye for an eyesore
I just wanna be in your arms again
I just wanna be in your arms again
I
I just wanna be in your arms again
I just wanna be in your arms again
