Dream on you pondering poets

Remember when we were infants?
Have we grown any since then?

  Dream on, you pondering poet.

Now there's a look on our faces,
 we don't know how
  to fill the empty spaces..

     Dream on,
       you lost poets...

We got caught in the middle
of development and extinction,
trapped in the time wave.

Come on you creatures
 caught in this chaos,
  come on you loner
   you angel,
    you GOD
     and dream!

We tried to control to much,
we're getting out of touch.

    Dream on, you wandering poet.

Frightened by fantasies inside
even though we never tried..
  
  Dream on,
   you lost lonely angels.

Well we wasted the wonders
 with pointless perfection
  froze in the time wave.
   Come on you spirit,
    you screamer of secrets
     come on you mystery
       you legend
         you UNIVERSE
           and dream!

Awaken, my friends
awaken, to the astrals.
Where have we been?
Doesn't matter it's time to go within.
We've been in the time loop
spinning in space,
searching for love or someone above.
We obsessed over possessions
to fill the emptiness inside
and we never enjoyed the norm
We know we shouldn't conform
so awaken to the astrals.

Awaken my friends
awaken to the infinite.
What are your dreams?
Can't we see we share the same dream?
You dreamed of a free world
one not so unfurled.
We always assume a change will come,
till then we mindlessly consume to forget feeling numb.
So awaken to the astrals.

"Come in, frightened one
and have a drink
it'll help you think, let loose.
No more excuses
we're gonna take away your blues.
You're gonna feel fine."

"Well we've always put you before ourselves
and we mean that most sincerely"
Your lives are just as important
this is really how we feel
come on now just take the deal.
But did we specify the rules
of the game, puppet?
We call it selling your soul for a name."

You're just pieces
of some puzzle that never ceases.
We've gotta break from these patterns.
We owe it to our souls
we're so clueless we can hardly breathe.
Everyone can see
how hard it can be.
It could be much worse
still we must find a way to make this easier
but did they specify the rules of this game?
They call it loving yourself and your planet as one.

-

So, so you're completely afraid,
fear that you're fading?
with no clue what to do.
Can you tell the difference
between living and existing?
life and our supposed "death"?
Wait and let me catch my breath..

Did they get us to trade,
our hours for paper?
Endless time for divided days?
Long years with short pay?
A peaceful psyche for a manic mind?
Do you feel confined
to a life of desperate escapism
for temporary satisfaction?

How we hope
how we hope it would end.
We're all just
little lost souls
spinning out of control
day after day.
Driving down the same ole streets
still no one to meet.
Running in the rat race has
wiped the smile from our faces.

-

Nobody knows who we are,
no matter how close or how far.

  Dream on, you lost angel.

Build upon whatever love you do have
because this love may not last.

  Love on,
you lonely angel.

           We'll dwell in the darkness
         of tomorrows dimming dreams and
       sail on this time wave.
     Come on, you gods and goddesses,
    you lovers and givers,
   come on you bringers
  of peace and communion
 and dream!
