Dreams touch upon my pillow as I lie yet to awaken
Smell of morning, the city arises
Weather forecast on the screen

Praying in everyday, Wanting, Struggling
The world Dutch rolls
Our encounter, everything about you is my magic of love
A city colored in lead gray
The murky blue of rats
A blurry, dull heartbeat
Just a touch of unstained white still left in my heart

I run, trying to satiate my unfulfilled heart
The scenery disappears with the first step
From up above the sky
Catching up from behind
Your face appears on the whimsical clouds

Sick of it all I gave everything up
It all turned to black and crumbled away
I blotted everything away out of lonesomeness
Gripped by fear, I fell away into darkness

An excursion into another dimension
A blue and deep night
Let's change the world
What do you see over there?

From our opened eyes
We'll collect all that spurts forth
Let's float in our pool of tears
Take that plunge and just jump without a run-up
The velocity of the push off
Will take us anywhere
Surely...

Even into the light
Even into the dark, surely
