Dream, dream, I will dream
Swim into the astral stream
And drift away
Sing, sing, I will sing
Eyes entranced by the color scheme
Of the greens in the waves
And feel the water
Underneath my feet
The blend of all the colors
Leaves me speechless and weak
Stone cold blood and bone
A weary king sits on his throne
And sees it all
Long, tall knight on call
Locks himself out in the hall
And he balls from what he saw
And feel the breath
Of an angel on my eyes
The sight of a million halos
Passed unnoticed in time
Dream, dream, I will dream
Swim into the astral stream
And drift away
And feel the water
Underneath my feet
The blend of all the colors
Leaves me speechless and weak

And on this day our founding fathers wrestled with the wind
I wonder what it would be like to be back then
There are muskets in the windows and there's blood on my skin
There's a splinter in my forearm from way back when
I was sitting in the woods, I stuck to the trees
My gun was loaded, nervous me jumped up to my feet
I could feel him on my back, I spun, shot straight at his teeth
Oh, I wonder what it would be like had he been me
And I never spoke
Of what I wrote
Twenty letters to home
Never sent
But ever since
I could never shake my resentment
Well the war had ended I went home and went for a walk
My eyes would only let me see what I already saw
I had myself a warm ale and a steak almost raw
Oh, I wonder what it would be like had I never gone
And I often smoke
My guilt, I tote
And my mind feels broke
If I could
Then I would
Change what I did back in that wretched wood

Long Way To Go (Demo)

Oh, my son
Are you living long, and living fun
Or are you close to being done
And oh, you got a long way to go
And oh, boy
Are you finding joy, in making noise
And treating girls like they are toys
And oh, you got a long way to go
But you know you've got some rules to follow
Just do your best in what you guess is how you're supposed to live
Take what you can get and give what you can give
And oh, you got a long way to go
And oh, sis
Are you feeling mad, and feeling pissed
Or feel the touch of a lover's kiss
Oh, you got a long way to go
And oh, child
Are you feeling straight or feeling wild
Or feeling warm and feeling mild
And oh, you got a long way to go
But you know you've got some rules to follow
Just do your best in what you guess is how you're supposed to live
Take what you can get and give what you can give
Though you feel this
Heart is restless
Don't you notice
All the things you're about to miss
