Analysis of Depths of Dreams



Down below in the depths of dreams,

To call out with horrendous screams.

Scared of life, scared of death,

Fearful of taking that final breath.

Keep pushing forward before you break down,

Never give up, don't make a frown.

Lets keep quiet just one last time,

We'll make it through everything perfectly fine.

Escape the depths of dreams, to fight another day,

In a lost reality, with absolutely nothing left to say.
