Haunted by nightmares of happier days
In style with backward thought
Same old maze
Could be courageous
Could be delayed
You tune back in and watch reality fade
A dozen demons welcome you to the stage
Your master calls to you with hatred and rage
Beg for forgiveness
He offers you none
Not knowing which end is up you hide in the sun
The flames start tearing up your soul in a while
And ancient memories distort in a pile
The moon will hide the pain from earth until morning
But when you rise your curious eye reveals a warning
How do dreams come back when your older and weary
How does youth react to an age over dreary
How do dreams come back after misery and strife
How does youth react when you're weary of life
Just when you thought time couldn't go on
Out of the darkness comes the first rays of dawn
It breaks my heart to see so much confusion
I know what you mean but I know it's illusion
How do dreams come back when your older and weary
How does youth react to an age over dreary
How do dreams come back after misery and strife
How does youth react when you're weary of life
Reading libraries of knowledge
Fulfilling the mind
But too much logic has your soul in a bind
Life is so simple yet life is so complicated
And all your wasted words are so over-f*cking-rated
How do dreams come back when your older and weary
How does youth react to an age over dreary
How do dreams come back after misery and strife
How does youth react when you're weary of life
