Theater of Dreams / Don'T Go To Sleep

Trapped in a theater of dreams,
Haunted by heartless screams.
The man who owns this place,
Shows whatever he deems.

Traveling hyper-speed through space,
Not being allowed to see anyone's face,
Still sitting in my chair,
My mind's not in it's place.

There is no such thing as care,
Especially in a place with scare.
The screen is flickering light,
This has to be a nightmare!

Everyone is given a fright,
There isn't any white.
All I can hear are screams,
My spirit has fallen from flight.

Haunted by heartless screams,
Trapped in a theater of dreams.
