Behold the Dreamers

you crash landed in my dreams, I know
my eyes were fooled by your pleasant show
a tunnel wide, and a vision dim
I called for you, and you heard my hymn
you led me to heaven, then left me in hell
what once was love, now a grim farewell
the waves of the sea wash away your pain
now death rides a train as you laugh in the rain
all the legends died, maker signified
distant echos heard, broken voices slurred
as we wave goodbye, floating in the sky
body sheds its skin, kills the heart within
a cold reminder of September’s chill
longing for something that made us ill
sleeping and weeping, a lonely cry
alone, we swear that we were going to die
I looked at the moon and I saw your eyes
watching me fall, but you helped me rise
somewhere in time you forsaken me
without an embrace you just set me free
all the legends died, maker signified
distant echos heard, broken voices slurred
as we wave goodbye, floating in the sky
body sheds its skin, kills the heart within
