1. Dreaming
What you see through your dream
don't you see reality
as I stare through your mind
can't you see I walk through space
no one knows what you dream
these are dreams of what I see
can't you feel as I reach
through your mind I wander through
I only see you in my dreams
a dark reality of what is real
never knowing what I see
As you ride through your dream
through your mind I see a place
no one knows what it is
can't you see it's really me
going down falling through
through your eyes I see a place
staring back what you see
take you up and follow me
I only see you in my dreams
a dark reality of what is real
never knowing what I see
I wander through your dreams
searching for myself
trying to find what is real
a definitive answer for a tortured mind
I am the dreaming I am you
I find my life in your mind, searching
I am dreaming
Dream on, dream on
dream on, dream on
Now I stare through your mind
touching you I feel a dream
floating through another life
reaching out to you I scream
going down I need your mind
I need to feel your dream inside
calling out to your mind
when you wake I will be dead
I only see you in my dreams
a dark reality of what is real
never knowing what I see
2. Diceman
I roll a single dice
a memory in my mind seems to turn
as I'm running from the dice I roll, watch it roll
searching just another life to lead
I roll the dice again
on the table of our lives I feel I want to die
what is this I ask you
have I come too far to roll the dice
now I kick the table to the floor, will I die
Searching round inside, side by side
I roll the dice again
throwing on the table
I don't if I die
round and round I throw to find my life
roll the dice again
as I search inside to find the meaning of the dice
Now it's almost gone, because I know
the chance is here with me
as I roll again, an image of a man
who died like me
What is my life, I feel like dying inside
my life has now escaped from me
now I find out who I've been
can't you see I need the dice to live
Searching as I do, and as I do, the dice it seems to glow
the way I let the dice take control, control me
as I roll again, the dice seems to take control of me
pulling up the table, no help, please help me
round and round, I throw to find my life
roll the dice again
as I search inside to find the meaning to the dice
3. Maze of Glory
Seeking the entry to pass in the maze where time stands
still
glory is to be lost for now as we enter their realm
as I pass through the door my mother stands in my way
I feel tears in my eyes this is the first of the test
She waits as I walk on past the gate to her hand
the tears are clouding my eyes as her face turns to
death
Which way??
Don't follow your eyes go with your heart and mind
choose your paths for you will find, the maze
unfolds before your eyes
but it isn't as it always seems, a silent trap, which always
lies
Menzil has senses that we are mean, we are the sons
the maze is starting to change, changing its form
only the end we seek of what has become
a failure to find the key will mean man's doom
this is your doom
so as the rain begins to tall
mystic flights arrive, demons of our spawn
riding through the clouds faces lost in war
calling out our names we shall heed their call
As we're carried off to the center of the maze
faces shout our names from below the walls of hate
flight of the demons taking our mind through the world
showing us the pity of man's greed
hear the choir sings a haunting epitaph
as we're taught the lesson of our lonely lives
Now we fall from the sky drifting in our mind
all alone, it seems, will we ever land
How we find ourselves in a simple life
only me to care, no one ever knew
show me what it is that you're asking for
"Son you'll never know what you're searching for"
See the guiding light as the maze, it re-appears
as our minds become as one we see within
we passed the tests it seems, but shall we gain the key
man shall never learn from two men's silent deeds
hear the choir sing the haunting epitaph.
4. Another Tomorrow
As I stand amongst the clouds
before the gods they tell me why
why I am destined to save this world
from the north to the distant shores
I see the sign of a farmer's pain
begging the sky above the fields
rain on, rain on me, rain on, rain on me, rain on
now he hearts the distant thunder
across the sky and through his mind
now he runs traveling homeward
as the tears fall from his eyes
The rain has come and now it pours
no one ever told me why
why the drought would turn flood tomorrow
a mortal lesson with the power of rain
to fight as one and not against
can't you see we only come back for more
I feel the ground as it soaks
the tears that weep from the gods
a silent sadness for the foolishness of man
will they ever learn that they can't stop the rain
and save the world instead of thinking of themselves
I see the rain coming in from the horizon
the clouds that hang low in the sky
and I feel it rain, and it rains and rains...
stop the rain, stop the rain
A farmer stands in his open fields
looks to the sky and raises his hands
and as a tear fall from his eye
he feels the pain and it rains and it rains, stop the rain, stop the rain
from falling down
Now he hears the distant thunder
across the sky and through his mind
now he runs traveling homeward
as the tears fall from his eyes.
5. Behind These Eyes
Believe in me, catch me, I'm falling
see what I see, don't fall I'm coming
Can't believe what my eyes see
can't you see through your eyes
I need to see
I need to speak to your mind
feel what you feel, hold me I'm falling
say what you need, hear me I'm calling
Look behind these eyes you'll see
a man who feels what you need
Can't believe what I have said
behind these eyes I feel I'm lying
help me out won't you please
to stop the flow of my mind
can't believe what I've seen
all I did was only trying

7. Lonely Star
On a starlight night
staring in the sky
dreaming of our days together
dreaming of tonight
I wish I knew you from the very start
lonely star is drifting in the sky above
searching for the answers
in the sky so blue
dreaming of this moment feeling
crying out to you
Shine on me, shine on you
shine on you, lonely star
I gave you everything
shine on you lonely star
Now when I'm with you
look up to the sky
see the lonely starlight shining
calling to your heart
No, I gave it all
shine on me, shine on you
shine on you lonely star
now that I feel I need you
shine on you lonely star
I never can forget you
shine on you lonely star
I gave it all to you
you gave it all to me
Watching closely, lonely star
searching for your lonely night
I can't look left or to the right
starlight shinning, from your heart so bright
Searching for the sunrise, lonely night
I can't see between the stars at night
nowhere to begin to the starlight shines
watching, waiting for this lonely star
I gave it all to you
you gave it all to me
searching everywhere for you
watching waiting for the star
I'm searching for something
I'm searching for something
I'm searching for something
you came into my life
I'm searching for something
you came into my life
Searching searching for our lives
8. Delayed Reaction
Bring me her life that flows
as he waits to find another
no chance to find another side
to change the early morning tide
to watch the drifting sea and sun
no place to die the empty sea
you face the final seconds there
to change it's all I want to know
to late to start the night again
dream is the start and life's the end
nowhere to run
nowhere to hide
life sailing through the night
Now the time has come
to find out what I've done inside
I can't stand the rain falling from the sky
see the empty sea and sun
I feel I have to hide inside
She waits for the night to come
to steal the dreams that taunt my mind
I find a light, a silent maze
now the time has come again
to find out what I've done inside
I see her mind in me too
discovering what I've done
I can't hear the rain
falling from the sky
I see the silent maze appear
show me how to run
I feel I have to hide
Now the time has come
to find out what I've done
I can't see the rain
falling from the sky
