Breath ebbs and flows from my lungs
Reality releases its grip on me
And in my mind a story is spun
Of untread worlds of fantasy
I walk the shores of crystal skies
And tred the oceans deep
I fly through skies of effervescent lights
Into canyons red I leap
For in my sleeping mind
Where truth gives way to imagination
Life can be all I can dream
So why when my eyes open
Can't I shape the world I see
Can't I fix all that's broken
Like I can in my dreams?
If only we could shape
The world with just a thought
Be rid of malice and hate
And all the troubles we've wrought
Yet if we put into practice
The visions that we dream
And show the world what love is
We can recreate reality
