Where Fears Never Reach

Never awake, not asleep
Walking in light of a dream
Somewhere lost in-between

Haunted by pain and nightmares alive
I follow your hand into far realm
Where fears never reach
Where darkness can never touch my heart

And slowly reality fades
Turning into a bright dream
With night’s last breath

I turn my sails back to pale shores
Of far lands we all used to call home
Through memories faded
With smiles weak and withered
We reclaim a dream writing it real

On the edge of awake and sleep I see
The end of real weak and pale
And you walk near holding my hand

Lost between awake and dream
I follow your call to feel real
Falling into your arms to see
Where this path will lead

Guide me away from this pain
Into dwelling break of day
Take me away with you…
