Dream on Dreamer

Do you even understand
How much these lyrics strip

Slowly becoming bare
As each syllable slips

The phrases show more and more

Who I am
What I stand for

Alas
I am not one for boasting
So my notions
Will never part oceans

And wise men will say
And, of course, be praised

Dreamers will say
And those will be their last words

These facts make it harder
To fall asleep
In this amusing yet frightening world

When the mad men and leaders
Share the same face
Oh let the turmoil unfurl

This truly is
A sphere of fear
And it grows
Like shadows at sunset

With each passing year
