DREAMS AND VISIONS (REVISED)

I FEEL AS IF I AM FADING,

SLOWLY BECOMING INVISIBLE AGAIN

EXACTLY LIKE I WAS WHEN I WAS THIS
TWO-LEFT-FEET KID.

WHY DON'T THEY WANT TO HEAR THE WORDS I AM SAYING?
WHY DON'T THEY WANT TO SHARE IN THE PRAYING?

I KNOW IT SOUNDS CRAZY,

BUT I HAVE DREAMS AND VISIONS

OF WHAT IS TO COME.

AND IF YOU THINK THAT IS SOMETHING YOU MAY WANT, THEN YOU DO NOT KNOW
HOW THESE DREAMS CAN BE.

THEY ARE VERY REAL,

AS IF I WAS IN ANOTHER REALITY
AND THE CHANNEL HAD BEEN CHANGED
PERMANENTLY.
I COULD FIND NO WAY
TO CHANGE THE CHANNEL ON MY OWN,
ALL ALONE

SOMETIMES I TRY

TO QUIET MY MIND

JUST TO GET SOME REST.

BUT NO MATTER, THE VISIONS COME THROUGH,

AND THUS FAR THEY HAVE ALL COME TRUE.

I'M AFRAID TO SAY WHAT I SEE

IN THESE DREAMS

FOR FEAR YOU WILL CART ME AWAY,
HO HO, HEY HEY.

BUT I CANNOT HOLD BACK,
I MUST STAY THE COURSE,
STICK WITH PURPOSE ON THE STRAIGHT AND NARROW
GOD HAD SPECIFICALLY PREPARED BEFORE ME, LONG BEFORE I WAS EVEN BORN.
EVEN IF IT'S IN VAIN.

I MUST TELL THE TRUTH

NO MATTER WHAT,

AND IF I SOMEHOW I DO END UP IN CHAINS.
I WILL BE A GOOD LITTLE SOLDIER,
AND SING AWAY THE CLAUSTROPHOBIA AND PAIN.
