Dreams

How, even now your fate is sealed 
With the hound upon your heels, lie still 
Tremble and the jaws could kill, now 
How, in the terror that you feel 
Does it touch you like the coldest steel? 
Why is everything so real, now? 
Fall to this premonition, a crystal ball of vain ambition 
This warning keeps on calling, don't ignore this fatal spore 

Dreams, we can never escape from our dreams 
Cause we're bent out of shape in our dreams 
By the terror from which we run 
In our dreams, there's a matter to face in our dreams 
And there's no better place than our dreams 
To prepare for the night to come 

How, can you hide or run away 
In the thunder, when the rain drenched streets 
Turn to clay beneath your feet, now 
How, as your dreams come into play 
Is it everything you crave could be? 
All you were afraid to see, now 
Crawl through this demolition, a catastrophic late omission 
This warning keeps on calling, can't ignore the strange rapport 

Dreams, we can never escape from our dreams 
Cause we're bent out of shape in our dreams 
By the terror from which we run 
In our dreams, there's a matter to face in our dreams 
And there's no better place than our dreams 
To prepare for the night to come 

It's the world that is turning for a cold heart of stone 
It's only in dreams that you're never alone 
For the candle is burning and we're wiser, still learning 
That no living creature is bad to the bone 
In your dreams the night betrays memories you hide away 

Dreams, we can never escape from our dreams 
Cause we're bent out of shape in our dreams 
By the terror from which we run 
In our dreams, there's a matter to face in our dreams 
And there's no better place than our dreams 
To prepare for the night to come
