You're Afraid to Dream

(My God I've arrived, I'm there and you don't feel very different from what you always felt)

You're afraid to dream
You're afraid to fall asleep

You're afraid to plunge deep
You're afraid to decease

You better rid yourself of all that
Cause the time for fear has passed

You're afraid to dream
Cause the cliff is way to steep

You're afraid of yourself
cnd that's not something you can shelve

You better rid yourself of all that
Cause the time for fear has passed
You better take off that disguise
You'll blur the line between truth and lies

You're afraid to dream
You're afraid to live

You're afraid of sleep
You're afraid to exist

(Because we've simply cheated ourselves the whole way down the line)

You better rid yourself of all that
Cause the time for fear has passed
You better take off that disguise
You'll blur the line between truth and lies

You better rid yourself of all that
Cause the time for fear has passed
You better take off that disguise
You'll blur the line between truth and lies

(We thought of life by analogy with a journey with a pilgrimage which had a serious purpose at the end and the thing was to get to that end success or whatever it is or maybe heaven after you're dead)
