A Dream Full of Fire

Morning comes earlier each day
Summer turns colder as autumn falls
Darkness and daylight fade into gray
Shadows that haunt prison walls
They say time is a healer but time sealed your fate
You walk with the lonely and live with the hate
You need to rehearse but now the curtain is up
And God knows the show must go on
Oh, oh, oh
Escape
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Escape
Once you were young and you dreamed of the stars
Lighting the holes in the summer sky
Racing the wind with your best avatars
Blind to the time rushing by
Slowly gravity pulled you on down from the sky
You found that your wings were too heavy to fly
You built up the walls to lock the daydreams away
And lost yourself in the maze
Oh, oh, oh
Escape
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Escape
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Morning comes earlier each day
All dreams are fading as winter calls
Starlight and shadows take you away
Shapes on the old prison wall
They’re hanging up Jesus in a motel room
Some old velvet pictures, the sun and the moon
The cigarette smoke is hanging stale in the air
And God knows the show must go on
Oh, oh, oh
Escape …
