Reverie

[Tabs]

It all began with silence, from under my covers I seen the sight
The darkest cloud marching proud through another sleepless night
As I lie awake in bed, cursing the hate that aches my head
My thoughts gathered 'round to hear an earth shattering sound that could wake the dead
I was weak and powerless, it's a tedious deep analysis
Wanna leap to my feet but can't speak of of sleep paralysis
There was a fire deep inside and it began to melt my core
Then I felt something in myself that I had never felt before
I was helpless, I felt it all in my bones
Thunder clapped, the Son is back and now he's calling me home
I felt in view with heaven's consciousness
And these thoughts moved upon me like tsunamis that will soon consume the seven continents
Left in astonishment, and maybe it's only right
At last my soul can bask in the glow of this radiant holy light
I know I got to accept it, this is knowledge perfected
I'm lost in His voice, my only choice is to follow the Sheppard
Such sights He brings before me so I'm forced to sing the story
Riding high through a violet sky on giant loons of glory
The sight I saw was ?? by the Bible's estimation
But the fear was primal when we reached the final destination
And it's way beyond any potential ride I could pencil out
I'm out my mind I guess I gotta climb the steps of the temple now
Start my quest towards the architect before the darkness sets
And if I look deep within my heart, starts to spark and char my flesh
Then the Son speaks "Father, one of your sheep has cometh"
I feel the Holy Spirit alive in me when I finally reach the summit
He said this was the point where most have eventually gone astray
Cuz from here on out you're on your own, then He sent me on my way
Walking down the darkest corridor that I ever saw before
With plan to touch the purest call of the grand orbiter
More and more I'm unsure what this court of law is called
But damn as my chore I side to make the ?? ?? ??
All in all it's nothing but I swear as I write these letters
That faithful night I gained the sight that would change my life forever
And it's never been clearer, I'm just a mirror of its presence
The mere sound of His voice, it hoist my spirit to the essence
Starring into my eyes like why your wings have grown
He grabbed my outstretched hands with a plan to bring me home
To the land of things unknown so I can stand with kings on thrones
I chose to stay amongst the heartless, armed with only a slaying stone
He said these worldly ways would lead me to an early grave
The weight of those words shook me as He took me to the pearly gates
But after the mission was done I asked if I could bring some of my brethren
He said it's only a mission for one into the kingdom of heaven
So I started weeping, the Son of man was leaving
He said follow me to the motherland where you understand the meaning
And you don't succumb to plans from the under hand deceiving
I'm thinking this is another scam, but on the other hand I'm dreaming

"When I finally woke up, I was like, whoa, that wasn't a dream, that was a visitation to this real place, the land of the dead."
"So what happened? I mean how did you finally get out of it?"
"Oh man. It was just like one of those like life altering experiences. I mean I could never really look at the world the same way again, after that."
"Yeah, but I mean like how did you, how did you finally get out of the dream? See, that's my problem. I'm like trapped. I keep, I keep thinking that I'm waking up, but I'm still in a dream. It seems like it's going on forever. I can't get out of it, and I want to wake up for real. How do you really wake up?"
"I don't know, I don't know. I'm not very good at that anymore. But, um, if that's what you're thinking, I mean you, you probably should. I mean, you know if you can wake up, you should, because you know someday, you know, you won't be able to. So just, um ... But it's easy. You know. Just, just wake up."
