Were I to ever read your mind Is it possible, that I might find Do you yet dream of me? A sunny day, where once we prayed A life of sun, and then of rain Do you yet dream of me? I close my eyes, and dare to dream Of a bright-lit lake, those golden beams Could it have ever been? We sang and danced, and wiled away Made promises that summer day And yes, we dared to dream The storm was slow and subtle ere It came when we saw nothing there We tore apart our dream In that storm where once we stood Lost sight of all we knew was good Then monsters came, to our great shame We let them rule us in our pain Wounded I watched you die indeed And with you died our dream Where once you walked, a monster rose Mocking, fierce, with bitter prose Aspersing all you once held dear Held darkest anger, and deepest fears With darts of cruelest poison bared And laughed at all we once had dared But in my horror, I realized The monster wasn't only lies In trying to combat the storm My strength faded, my
