I Was Only Dreaming...

when I wake up my head still feels heavy
cluttered up from the dreams the night before
i was lost at sea one thousand days
with a bottle and a broken compass
i had lost the will to live
until i woke on a strange and distant shore
but i was only dreaming
the troubled signs of a mind that’s ill at ease
i’ve been lost and found
then i turned around
took the trouble just to see what’s going down
wait awhile and the world will change or it changes you
i’m not sure which
and scars may never fade
but strength is the heart to let them show with courage
and just before i break
in darkness a spark begins to glow
so when you’re fortunes stall
if you start to fall
taking comfort that your back’s against the wall
wait awhile and the world will change
if there’s one thing that i’ve found that’s true
its scars may never fade
but strength is the heart to let them show with courage \
and just before I break
in darkness a flame begins to grow
destruction, birth in fantasy
i’m dreaming of the life I seek
i’m changing the things I can control
scars may never fade
but strength is the heart to let them show with courage
and just before I break
in darkness a spark begins to glow
begins to grow
