Filling my mind with visions and dreams.
Lighting a candle as i yell and scream.
Laughing at loud at the prophets and
kings, they promise mircles and wonders
for some spare change.
Filling my life with comedies and disasters,
holding on to hope as i drown in the
water, and then out of the blue a wise
man points at me and says, stand up
its only a foot of water.
