Night Dreaming

The memories of a mad man just won't go away
As night falls on him in the middle of the day
And the stars there to forever shine
Keeps him wishing, wishing on a sign
But all the shooting stars disappear without a trace
Leaving his wishes unanswered in this desolate place
Move on! comes a  voice so unkind
But oh! to start over without a sign
Reminds him of a once so long ago lifetime
Where faces with no names
Judged you with accusing head games
Fanning the fire
And him neck deep in flames
They'll come a day when he emereges from his shell
Bursting though with all the forces from hell
On that day the head games will cease
And the memories of a mad man will be released
