Whenever I
|
I close my eyes
|
Then I don't mind being the way I am
|
But whenever I try
|
Explaining why
|
I know I never can
|
|
Now that it's
|
Gone, paths I used to travel
|
Gone, things I used to handle
|
Gone, once I had a choice what to be
|
|
But then god kissed me
|
And I lost it when I fainted in his arms
|
Have pity on me brother
|
I'm trapped behind the mirror
|
I'm out here on the border
|
|
Wondering why
|
Why was it I?
|
Maybe my mind wouldn't have come this way
|
If I'd taken my time
|
Answers only unwind
|
When you can't look away
|
|
Maybe 'cause
|
I want the secret broken
|
I want the casket open
|
I need to see what no eyes can see
|
|
And when god kissed me
|
Then I dreamed them when I fainted in her arms
|
Now I've got to go on sleeping
|
|
Lean in a little closer
|
And I'll tell you what I'm dreaming
|
I'll tell you what I'm dreaming
|
|
I see time without beginning
|
Space without an ending
|
I see bodies strong and running
|
With minds not comprehending
|
Have pity on your brother
|
Please have pity on your sister
|
Take pity on each other
|
And on every living creature
|
|
Whenever I
|
Open my eyes
|
I can't believe it's real
|
It's a jungle outside
|
People just survive
|
They can't reach the high ideal
|
|
But I
|
Know if I can't recover, at least I
|
Know, I know the book from cover to cover, and who
|
Knows, I might dream forever
|
Since I've met the world's greatest lover
|
When god kissed me
|
And I knew it when I fainted in his arms
|
|
Let's dream together people
|
