I see the shadows
I see them in the dark of night
waking up cold sweat's
praying for the light
I say I'm alright
but we know that's a lie
I dream of better days
In field's of gold, I'll die
I have been fighting my whole life
all I do is try
Just one question needs answering
that question is why ?
Signed... the dreamer
===================================
Be like the phoenix
reborn in the flame's of glory
Never stop pushing forward
It's time to tell your story
sudden sweats, heartbeat's insane
30 different voices
talking in my brain
you will never make it
your to weak and pathetic
you will never be whole
my demons neglected
so I pause and take a deep breath
It's time to fly, well my body dies
It's time to reach
The highest of high's
Signed... The Dreamer
