Dream Visage

Taken in by the traffic

And hounded by the storm

A neon shade filters

Across the floor

Out through the window

I see an August rain appear

Though I can't see you

I know you're here

The night chills on

And wades itself into the air

I drift in and out of the scenes

I'm unaware.

My hand reaches through your face

And down through your frame

Then I awake; It's not the same

It's a silly game

But it's you; oh it's you

Underneath the glowing light

That hides within your eyes

And though it seems

We'll never meet again

I close my eyes and pray

The dream will reappear

It won't be here, it's very clear, it won't be here

White orb fades

To dim lit mirk

Cradled fields

Are now unearthed

Running once, falling twice

Streets have changed arrayed streetlight

Creatured swamp once was home

The 'Dark Man' is coming and you're alone

Alone at last, see your hands

Bleed into welcome sands

Feel the ground, sink beneath

Out of breath and out of sync

Swallowed your throat into fear

Tonight you know, the 'Dark Man' is here

It was you

Underneath the glowing light

That hides within your eyes

And though it seems

We'll never meet again

I'll close my eyes and pray

The dream will hold me again

I'll face another night

Another lonely day

I've gone so far

So close and then

The morning's here
