Dream Your Life Away

make no mistakes your race is already done
lazy Susan behind the blind eyes no fun

will you get what is there for you , this endeavor
or has the theatrical scream laid you to waste

you lie when your always in the far right 
uptown girl you think your outta sight 

when your darkness shows up in the black void
how do you tell the sun to shine

what has the dream been this evening 
are you dancing the fandango with Astaire

or holding up the wall of your own despair
fling the dance about your halls they are crashing down

move move your dream is on the track rolling down 
dream dream the train is at your station on a one way track
