Waking Up from the Dream

The velvet sky is thinning now

A crack appears behind the brow

The colors bleed, the shadows crawl

The light is shaking on the wall

I feel the weight of every lie

The stars are falling from the sky

Waking up to the cold white sun

The dream is over, the race is run

Shattered glass where the garden grew

I face the truth, I face the new

No more hiding in the gold

I'm brave enough to face the cold

Brave enough to face the cold

The colors fade to grey and brown

I put the heavy armor down

It hurts to see the way it is

But I'd rather have the truth than this

Waking up to the cold white sun

The dream is over, the race is run

Shattered glass where the garden grew

I face the truth, I face the new

No more hiding in the gold

I'm brave enough to face the cold

up

Waking up
