Yesterday I gazed into the skyStared into the sunThe stars up highSomehow fell into my eyeAnd then they'd fade awayFather of oblivionTake me out of this placeThis is a world of despairTheir meager grasps at simplicityPromise a peace that will never beSomehow the vision faded awaysomehow the decisionTurned and walked the other wayA little taste of gloryA pocket of fameI guess the song that's in my headReally don't remain the sameBring the dawn, bring onBring the daySing it long, won't you sing onIt's just a state of mind awayBringer of the bird songColor the grayLet the rain onto my headLet it wash it all awaySleeping through the darknessDreaming of the dayWhere purple rain and sugarcaneLet me know I'm on my wayInto a dream I was flyingFeeling like I'd been chased awayI took to the air like an angel in flightTo the sky of another dayI had a dream I was dyingFeeling like I'd been chased awayI took to the air like an angel in flightTo the sky another dayI had a dream I was dyingShot me in the head I felt no painI just remember I was waiting for somethingSomething that never really came
