Long Forgotten Dream

Would you listen when the wind decides to whisper English fate?
Will you heed the words within the winds that whisper, "It's too late"?
Would you see the reasons falling from the sky?
Or the locusts screaming madly as you turn around and die?
Could you recognize some message to relate?

Have you felt the atmospheric friction churning up above?
All the traits and the descriptions seem to fit just like a glove
Can you see us scratching backwards through the seams?
Crawling circles on our backs with our dumbfounded expertise
Just the thought of this is riddled with disease

Can you see her moving slowly to the rhythm of this song?
Would you like to tag along with us? I know it won't be long
Could she take us back to somewhere you desire?
Could she lead us to the doorway? Would you sit down by the fire?
Would your eyes be sealed with love instead of hate?

Can you see the empty chambers of your head begin to spin
Leaving nothing but the cavity for all the living skin?
Would you settle for the empty space within?
Or just kick and scream for something else to carry your thoughts in?
One foot before the other, let's begin

Have you grown without a doubt or have you always wondered why?
Does this morning rush intrusively to flash your waking eyes?
Do you take it in or leave it as it lay?
Would you give a nod to life before returning to the clay?
Could you think about tomorrow like today?

Oh, her eyes are open
She's always hoping
We can turn this old familiar nightmare into a song
Sun keeps burning
World keeps turning
Reaching out and teaching love 'til the doubt is gone

Would you listen for the echo of your long forgotten dream?
You should listen for the echo of your long forgotten dream
