Collage of Dreams

Old place, old faces
Standing in the rain
Years ago, tears ago
No longer feel the pain
Tales to tell, escape from hell
Waiting for a train
Memories, ambitions, dangerous conditions
Reaching for the stars
I can sigh, I can fly
No longer feel the scars
I am here, I am there 
Returning from the stars
So many voices, so many choices
Standing on a pier
Winning, crying, losing, dying
No longer feel the fear
Giving, taking, finally waking
Imagine being here.
