Whatever Dreams

 

lead vocal: Tom

 

Maybe it was spite, or just a blind and foolish fight

Sometimes all we know to be wrong turns out to be right

It lives between the lies, but the strong stuff never dies

And soon is the day that the strong of us have eyes

 

I couldn’t see the wood for the tree

And the forest has most certainly eluded me

Bitter laughter seems like whatever dreams

Might forever never morning daylight see

 

Just this side of midnight, all the scrambling half-ideas

Totally dissolve to a child’s escapes and fears

The stronger eyes awake to toil on ever shifting soil

And work despite the might to be of death and foil

 

Maybe they were right when childhood looked like dying light

Most embarked the journey armed with necessary sight

Oh, but it’s not over—am I right? Yeah, it’s not over

I hope I clear the clouds before it’s over
