Dream

in the dark

and I'm right on the middle mark

I'm just in the tier of everything that rides below

the surface

and I watch from a distance seventeen

and I'm short of the others dreams of being golden

and on top

it's not what you painted in my head

there's so much there instead of all the colors

that I sawwe all are living in a dream

but life ain't what it seems

oh everything's a mess

and all these sorrows I have seen

they lead me to believe

that everything's a messbut I wanna dream

I wanna dream

leave me to dreamin the eyes

of a teenage crystallized

oh the prettiest of lights that hang the hallways

of the home

and the cries from the strangers out at night

they don't keep us up at night

we have the curtains drawn and closed
