Is there anyway I could merely fall asleep and just dream... dream.. Dream away from the scars and fights Fights and scars of all that which oppresses me and depresses me, Reality is no necessity of mine I shall stick to the depths of my mind And whatever I may find I'll hold it, I'll mold it, till I can call it mine. For what hath reality ever hold for me Nothing, nothing but pain, misery, and atrocity Free, I shall be With the birds of my dreams For it seems That the birds that fly in reality Are trapped and caged hopelessly By this omnipresent hatred leave this Earth as it is, old and decrepit I dare not die 'T'is not death For I have lived and merely decide 'Tis those that live, that hath given up their breath I lie awake ready for the ride The ride that may take me to a new height Oh sweet cyanide... I sleep again, tonight
