Caught up in a dream
State of mind eluded me
A tightly knit weave
Pacified the deepest seed
A vessel to twist dawn
Before my eyes
Fragile, full of sin
A spell stolen from the lies
That I told once again
She sang a song so faint and free
Close to the one I have
Seen in the dark of the dead sea
Pulling until I dive
Drowned in shallow scenes
Dreamcatcher hangs over me
A grip collapsing
Enveloping mist dies
In the tides of turmoil
Brought to this final point
And who holds it’s fate?
Left a shell upon the shore
The tides of wrath came back to mourn
Guided past the flood and moor
Pass the beast and feed on scorn
Trying to find the meaning of the day
Lying with the mirage to the rain
Seasons falter
And she knows I know
Endless landslide, can’t tell ash from snow
To satisfy the fascination
To live a life without a hint of fear
To peer into the empty glass and
Bare forth my fleeting soul
