When I dream, I dream of rain,
The rain of cleanliness.
That falls upon me now.
The rain that offers protection,
From all the fiendish things.
The rain that builds my feeling,
With the pitter-patter,
Of a rythmical tune.
That is the rain of confidence,
Filling my every hope and thought.
When I dream, I dream of light.
The light that shows the way,
Through the thick darkness, life,
And never lets me go astray.
It shows in my excuse of a face,
Attempting to wipe my depression away.
But it only reminds me,
Of what I once had and lost,
In this deep forest, pain.
When I dream, I dream of death.
Oh, the wonder it must bring!
Being free of all your fears,
This is what I dream.
The escape of life,
The escape of pain,
You're never to be hurt again.
Full of happiness, not disdain,
Dancing all the time.
This is my heaven.
When I dream of me, it's more a nightmare,
For I look bewildered and confused.
No thought in mind,
No goal intended,
To make it as far as I did.
I'm grateful now,
Of these accomplishments,
That I'll forever remember.
But years ago, I'd never even dream,
Of my life in light, happiness.
