Exist In Dreams

A dream that dances in waves, and mirrors all you do So you dance, and hope that some day the song will come from you This dream is all that exists, and all you’ve ever known The song is picking up speed, so it’s follow or fail alone A flame that flickers in sync with the shadows by your side The rain puts out the light, and causes you to hide This nightmare is all that exists, and all you’ve ever known But this song still hasn’t stopped, and so you dance alone You cherish sand on the banks of a path winding through a storm This desert trail is all that you see; too blinding to look beyond This path is all that exists, and the only way to go Holding close the sand as you sing, just so you’re not alone The sand is part of the storm that makes you close your eyes But now the wind starts to slow, and the scenery makes you cry This life is all that exists, and the only way to go The sand falls through your hands, and you carry on alone A love that blooms into being beneath the darkest skies Is a life that will venture out despite the lonely nights So scared, but so unafraid to find what you need to be Despite the fear that prevails, and tells you what to see The flames steady and still, and a shadow kneeling down The rain cleansing your heart as all your fears drown The sand creating a path, and shielding you from pain And now, with the wind at your back, you remember why you came To dream a light shining out for all the world to see To be more than you think, and beyond all that will be To create a desire to be the creators of our dreams To become the mirror of self, and reflect our unity
