Dreamed so many dreams
And now it seems
This is the thing that will take me down
Started as something small
Then it grew so high
Now the sun tastes like parched sand
Will it take me?
Will it break me?
Will this be the end of it all?
Chaos found me
Dark arms surround me
One trip, a long last fall
My only fear
Is that I’ll leave
Like a tree doesn’t make a sound
The only thing
That makes me smile
Is that the pain will soon go out
Will this take me?
Will this break me?
Will this be the end of it all?
Chaos found me
Dark arms surround me
One trip, a long last fall
At this time I feel
My sanity shed
Into that cosmic abyss
I hear it calling my name
From the other plane…
Ah-ah
And all the lies I told
And all the truth I told
And all the love I felt
And all the love I gave
And all the tears I shed
And all the tears I made
And all the things I hate
And all the things I love
And all the friends I made
And the women I loved
And the women I laid
And all the lives I touched
And all of those who don’t know my name
And all the things I’ve felt
And all the dreams that escaped
And all the dreams I made
And all the times I ignored
The strong hand of love
In the shadows of despair
Not even knowing you were there
Will all be gone in this moment
If only, in the memory of others
