When Dreams Riot
a mass rebellion
against fears of yesterday
hardcore promotion
of dreams that wouldn't stay
a riotous screaming
protesting my doubts
once again I'm dreaming
and following the shouts
of the crowd in my mind
the audiences in my heart
reminding me of the plan I designed
and begging me to start
resurrecting my passion
demanding the fulfillment of desires
urging me to no longer ration
the embers of old fires
instead encourage their burning
until they become a blaze
finally act on my yearning
and break out of this daze
