The Dream Lyrics

I had the dream last evening

The Elders all were there

Cloaked in hooded garments

Electricity in their hair

They carried water candles

That flickered cobalt blue

And bedroom eyes could not disguise

The evil they would do

While looming in the distance

The silhouetted hills

Were hosting all the victims

And counting up the kills

The sunset streaked a vapor trail

Upon a water color sky

The night folded it's wings around me

As I discovered I could fly

I soared above the houses

Through cotton candy skies

The frightened children watching

My image passed across their eyes

While screaming in their bedrooms

The women loved their pain

I lost my grip on heaven

And fell to earth again

The smell of fear engulfed me

It came down from on high

Although I tried to run away

My legs would not comply

I felt upon my shoulder

A bony lifeless hand

It churned a chill inside me

And made me understand

"Ignorance hides in the darkest places

And feeds it's poison to it's young

You'll wipe them from existence

You are the chosen one"

Somehow I escaped him

And headed for the sea

Across a field of broken mirrors

Reflecting everything but me

I walked across the water

And came upon a boat

Where Moses and Picasso

Were trying to stay afloat

One was painting flowers

The other skipping stones

When I asked them to explain

They cried, "Leave us alone!"

I hitchhiked back to Ixtlan

That painter stole my van

The locals in Atlantis

Were all working on their tan

And when I tried to warn them

My teeth fell from my mouth

A Snowstorm was approaching

So I headed south

The crowd had just descended

On the beach at Normandy

Where Hitler joined Queen Mary

To have a spot of tea

Now all of this confusion

Made perfect sense to me

It was a revelation

A truth I had to see

The Painter and the Prophet

Got married later on

And took their honeymoon

On the shores of Balaton

The water from the candles

Turned the Ocean cobalt blue

The burnt electric air

Gave my lungs a death tattoo
