Dream Within A Dream

Dark woods embraced the light of stars
And took the mirror of moonlit skies
Reflecting still in deep Mirkwood’s bound

You see a legend in one only word
Breathing thin air of the world untold
Living a dream you’ve never had
Still hoping to feel pure love you’d never get

Give to it all your light heart
And watch it sinking in deep dark art

You beg, you cry, you suffer bad
To find the cure from the pain that’ll wider spread

No light in the end of the dark
No hope behind deathbed
You see life turns into a spark
Beneath dry tears you shed

Lifetime sparkles in soul
With all pure light of the stars
Forget the darkness you followed
And share with me your heart

No dreams to fear the light dying deep in the dark
Until it shines inside you won’t be lost lone apart

“When the soul wants to feel let it bleed.
We only feel in suffering…”

Believe the heart once purer than starlight
A beam once lost in lonesome sea
Live in a dream within a dream
To see the truth darker than night
