Cryptic Dreams

~

Dreaming 'fore the first scattered light of dawn,
Dreaming 'til the sun settles, so long gone.
Dreaming as the seams of life come undone!

Writing words across the walls,
Never letting anyone inside.
Never left these lonely halls,
Shades are drawn, so days are dark, but
Night still falls, and you still fall asleep!
Leather-bound are paper planes,
Laying flat or soaring vainly high,
Where the air's so thin it strains.
Finding words inadequate, you
Tear down all the pages, starting over.

And every day flies faster,
And no moment can last, it
All feels like you're wasting time
All weighs heavy on your eyes,
So tired, when every week ends sooner,
So short, full to new, is the moon, it
All feels like a wasted breath,
All dread of untimely death!

Seeing words fall from the sky,
Are you lucid or are you
Hallucinating?
Clocks all reading two-o'-seven,
But ante or post meridiem?
Leather-bound, a blazing fire,
Passion fueled, your words a beacon, but
Now it burns more than inspire.
Is this real; is there a difference?
Tear down all the walls and start all over.

And every month comes quicker,
And you feel motion sick, it
All feels like you're wasting time,
All weighs heavy on your mind,
Not fine, when every year seems fleeting,
Not happy without bittersweet, and
All feels like a wasted life,
All you've done is waste your life!

Waste your life, until you die!

It's the word you could not look away from,
It's the word you could not tell anyone.
There are things so unspeakable that tongues cannot pronounce them.
Even though you know it's all so futile, you still try to
Make sense of a world you haven't seen
Since the day you cut out all distractions
So that you could focus on the dreams
Seeming to forget what inspires everything
And what you wish you could in turn
Share a part of this beautiful passion,
Being of this braid is all you yearn;
How did you forget you were already a string?

Dream awake,
Dream asleep,
Dream awake,
Dream asleep,
Dream awake,
Dream asleep,

'Til you never wake again.

Every beat and change hits with this one, and I especially love the opening piano.

Feels like something that would be in Hawaii Part II. I like the chaotic style. Pretty good!
