the dreams



As i lie here in slumber

 The hardest thing to do

Thoughts of dreams and other things

And dream the dreams of new

My soul is in this prison

Locked up thier is no key

Dreams have been forgotten

These dreams shall set me free

I am the shadow of the man

 Dreams of days gone by

This shell i call my prison

Shall i dream until i die

This day will come

I shall not run

From what I've dreamed will pass

I will not hide

From whats inside

The dreams they will outlast

The broken dreams that bring me down

Are these the keys I need

The dreams I have forgotten

 Are the dreams that hide in me

The things that i write about are from personal experiences or from my heart, and even from my soul I love to read and write, I also write songs. Many of them more…
