Wake Up And Dream

I need to wake up soon

So very soon

Into the light zone

Into the light

I'm falling forwards

And into sight

And running backwards

And falling down

They cheer they cheer

Under a piercing and

Blinding light

The crowd all gather

Singing

Right on right on

But there's no dark corner

Only

Centre stage

The crowd gets restless

I begin to say

I don't know if you know

I care I'm here

I'm only barely holding on

To something that is real

I'll stand up to the noise and light

Until everything requires

I might be heard

Or else wake up

And dream

Dream

Dream

He's so good looking

The traffic stops

He's a politician

A heavenly cop

Words of healing

Fall from his lips

Lifting up the weak

Is in his gift

People say yeah

To the hall of office

And the foreign stage

Maybe at last

The world's a

Better place

He's brought down swiftly

By the

Hand of fate

The people weep

And the thought remains

When you fight for every breath

Do you stop to think about your friends or do you

Realise

That in that moment separating life and death

You want to take what you can get

And maybe

Only wake up

But not

Dream
