is it a kind of dream floating out on the tide following the river of death downstream or is it a dream there s a fog along the horizon a strange glow in the sky and nobody seems to know where you go and what does it mean oh is it a dream bright eyes burning like fire bright eyes how can you close and fail how can the light that burned so brightly suddenly burn so pale bright eyes is it a kind of shadow reaching into the night wandering over the hills unseen or is it a dream there s a high wind in the trees a cold sound in the air and nobody ever knows when you go and where do you start oh into the dark
