Lyrics
DEAM ESCAPE
Cast your eyes around a broken park
Full of broken dreams and broken hearts
Eagerly looking for a dream escape
But there's a price to pay for a dreamers fate
No matter what it is you do
A short time later you sift through
Baggage carried by a life times fear
The nightmare of non dreamers that's never clear
Don't look for something that's not there
When what you want and what you have are already there
See the colour a brighter green
So much different from the one you've seen
Covet all you see if it's your desire
But be prepared for illusions pyre
Should you envey he who envies you
Without the wisdom to step back and see through
If we all changed places in a momentary switch
We'd still be playing on that same green pitch
Don't look for something that's not there
When what you want and what you have are already there
Whether you're truthful or political at heart
Stop your longing for another new start
Tinker tailor soldier or star
Life's just the same wherever you are
Don't look for something that's not there
When what you want and what you have are already there
