I wake up in the moment I fall asleep.
I slip away between the sunsets.
I exist in an idea.
I am lucid, pliable and willing.
You are the world.
You break the jaded and keep them broken.
You think you've got us all by the throat, but you don't have me.
I am the fighter.
The resistance.
The artist.
I am here to drag people kicking and screaming through the *******.
I am here to put the stars back in the eyes of the masses.
So let's bring the dead back to our version of life.
Step back from the brink.
Take action!
Walk through the fire while you still have life in your bones!
Make change!
Stop asking for it!
Explode into existence!
Burn complacency to the ground where it belongs.
Have we forgotten how to dream?
I can almost SEE the bend in the horizon!
It's so close!
It's time to grab it by the collar, and with love in our hearts and war
in our eyes, explain the meaning of life.
I will fight till the last breath in my lungs passes through the smile
on my face.
So do what it takes to never give up, because the only things that
really matter are whatever takes you to the clouds.
