Awake Inside The Dream

Did we make it this far
To be awake within the dream
The firefights and storms
The illusion as it seems
And the trapping of delusion
Spreads its grasp
And I wonder how long
This darkness can last
But somehow the sun breaks
And something within me wakes
To spell the end of the old domination
And I’ve learned more through my miseducation
Than I ever could through books
i steal in glances and furtive looks
All that is needed to contain
Sometimes the solution is in the pain
That seems to encase the human race
Nothing is bad but that it shows another face
To the sky
And we are all gonna die
Someday
But when we live do we walk the way
Of the liberated
And if we do can it be stated
In between lines and in the silence
I watch men do all the violence
That could ever be contained
And in the summer, it rained
Like it always does on an Irish Sea
Somehow the time has come to me
To stand up and be counted
And for all that has amounted
To my demise
It’s only sunset for the morning to rise
And break a new vista across the scene
Can we speak what can never be seen
