Dreams come back haunting the winter of my sleep I am losing interest in all that I keep There's no better ride as I glide into oblivion My tapestry is complete Let it cover the eyes of those forsaken and the weak . I am a one man marching band as the crowds line the streets Who ? They look at each other in disbelief I was once a nobody's need The phone rang out only in greed The vultures of despair sit on a fence asking what , when and where . Til all of my darkness goes not even I know The snow covers the earthen wombs dedicated shelters full of empty tombs waitinjg to be served

Winter of my dreams
Dreams come back haunting the winter of my sleep I am losing interest in all that I keep There's no better ride as I glide into oblivion My tapestry is complete Let it cover the eyes of those forsaken and the weak . I am a one man marching band as the crowds line the streets Who ? They look at each other in disbelief I was once a nobody's need The phone rang out only in greed The vultures of despair sit on a fence asking what , when and where . Til all of my darkness goes not even I know The snow covers the earthen wombs dedicated shelters full of empty tombs waitinjg to be served
