I can see all around me in this lucid state  My own mind controls my real fate  But if I wake from slumber, then returns despair  Of the days depression, forgets the dreams I share  If I sleep in peace do I loose my sin  Or does it linger to when the day begin    I've been trying for so long now to avoid the crimes of mind  The things I want, desire can it damn me from all peace  I lie awake and pray for sleep to take the sorrow away for now  In the dreams I'll find new hope, will hope ever cure my ills    I hear a woman's voice is calling    A voice I've never heard  I have no vision of her image  My dread is growing, I don't know    If I ever care to wake up  I know my fear will extend still  The inner workings of my mind  Can never sleep or calm my mind  The troubled waters of my world  Aren't consumed by restful sleep  Now upon the mornings rising  I find life's gauntlet carries on    In a building with no doorways    Escape can never be  Despair my only love  I find my way through the dreams of doom  Despair reaches out in the black of night  Embracing my life's dream  I still resist/break the curse/my faith  Will live/where hope denies my peace  And through revealed/ in fragments of my mind  My will exists/to roam the corridors of life    I am the force, I've searched and sought so long  My name is his through ancient dreams may now obscure
