Listen, can you hear them?
The whispers in the wind,
Flowing through your consciousness,
And drawing you in
Let it be your heart that guides you,
May it be your faith prevails
Always have to believe in something,
Prophecy, myth or fairytale
Could it be that you'll find the answer?
Could it be you knew all along?
You exist for a greater purpose,
So take your chance before it's gone
In this place you must tread carefully,
Having visions you just can't bear to see,
Making waves that distort reality,
And your mind pursues them all.
Cross the verge of fantasy,
Chasing shadows of destiny,
For every dream that you create,
You destroy a thousand more.
Still you can hear them,
Their distant beckoning,
They swirl in your mind,
Still drawing you in.
Don't look back cause they're right behind you,
Collecting everything you've left behind,
There lies all that might have been and
Are you afraid of what you'll find?
Maybe there's nobody out there,
Maybe you're the only one,
All your untouched dreams left scattered,
Before they even had begun
In this place you must tread carefully,
Having visions you just can't bear to see,
Making waves that distort reality,
And your mind pursues them all
Cross the verge of fantasy,
Chasing shadows of destiny,
For every dream that you create,
You destroy a thousand more
Most precious of all that you hold,
You grip it so tightly; you'll never let go,
Others, you take them and toss them aside,
This one you'll keep or you'll never survive
But still it keeps slipping, constricting and fading,
It pours through your fingers like rivers cascading,
This place, it consumes you, you're haggard and frayed,
It hands you your dreams just to take them away
What if you're not really searching,
What if you've got no control,
Over anything that comes to you and,
You're watching destiny unfold
But don't give up, don't give in to this world,
No matter what it throws your way,
If you can find the strength inside you,
You'll find your answers here someday
In this place you must tread carefully,
Having visions you just can't bear to see,
Making waves that distort reality,
And your mind pursues them all
Cross the verge of fantasy,
Chasing shadows of destiny,
For every dream that you create,
You destroy a thousand more
You destroy a thousand more
You destroy a thousand more
You destroy a thousand more
