Glass paradise
-------------------
Faraway from tethering reality;
into the dark domain of possibility;
go under with me - and free yourself of all your chains.
This jewel of a place would be so hard to find - bound by the limitations of our waking mind,
But in our dreams, we never need to run out of these panes.
Left and abandoned to decay;
whatever its purpose, it's had its day.
No-one cares and no-one minds -
and no-one knows, so no-one finds.
Scattered rubble strewn about;
sticks and stones - for me, no doubt!
Party time - it has begun!
It's time for me to have some fun!
****** ******, brittle glass;
oh that this would never pass!
What, oh what, if they could see
the secret life of naughty me!
Thoughts turn to the future in the light of day.
I wonder if again I 'll ever get to play.
Memories of trespassing in empty barns
and beautiful destruction in abandoned farms.
****** ******, brittle glass;
oh that this would never pass.
What, oh what, if they could see
the secret life of naughty me!
