Oh,
Everything
That I see
Under skies of blue and green
Oh,
Everything
That I hear
Any bells that you may ring
Oh,
Everything
To lock the key
Thrown away afar to sea
Oh,
Everything
That’ll scream
Rapture all but you and me
Oh,
Legless Being
Run and swim
For horizon far and dim
When you see
The mountain
You will hear
The fountain
Of your dream
Oh,
Fangless Thing
Wrap your wings
Dive away to stardom
Strings
(Will cut you)
Sharp as dreams
(Will catch you)
Of the streams
(Will get you)
Consciousness will soon reveal
(No one to believe)
Oh,
Anything
That may watch
Raise your head above the clouds
Oh,
Anything
That may laugh
High in voice and low in touch
Oh,
Dreamer king
Who know what’s real
Help the fool collect his string
When he’ll see
A river
He won’t drink
A sliver
Turn around
Oh,
Senseless Ring
Of tyrants
And monsters
And hollowing winds
Drop your beliefs
(Will hurt you)
Open your ears
(Will break you)
No one
Will ever
(Won’t save you)
Accept you
(Help you)
Except of the fool
(Take you)
And the dream
(Again)
And when you notice where the road ends
With the sun rising high above
Do not look down
Smell the petrichor
And hear the bird’s song of welcome
And when you notice where the cloud-line begins
High above and back behind you
Do not look down
Step forward a few more steps
And wake up, Dreamer
Wake up
