Violent Dreams

Let your body take over and your mind escape 
welcome to the darkness of sleepless fate, 
Walking on the clouds with people you admire 
your soul is a plan with the darkest desire, 
Fighting the awakeness is pain passing time 
your soul is a dream released by your mind, 
A place across the ocean where dreams never end 
once you let go the vanishing begins, 
Sealed eyes wide, caught up in a moment 
your spirit leaves free as your body stays lonely, 
Reach the dark side where voices are unheard 
where the good and the evil get what they deserve, 
I'm never going back, my time is to stay 
my spirit drifts away as the voices fade, 
Closer and closer the immortal calling 
my body awakes as my spirit keeps falling, 
Till I get the hint my time is forever 
I'm never going back to the ones that I treasure, 
I'm stuck in a dream caused by violence 
In a wide wooded bed living with the silence.
