Blink

We exist for a mere blink I think that's why humans have such a hard time accepting the end Our first and last perception is this reality Through experiences that brought joy Which turn into memories of sorrow Slipping ever slowly through a hollow gate It devours and gnaws Not seen until it's too late We can't see it But we know it's there A silent killer Creeping closer every day You have nowhere to be Except to exist Right here, right now And noone can hurt you And nothing can bother you up here Open your mind Just be Manifest your destiny When you look forward are you frightened? We are torn between two states of being I feel so real Imagine if we could dream together The things we could do Dreams cut through the darkness of the unconscious mind Sometimes I don't want to wake up I feel so real If we are capable of such vivid imagery as we sleep Imagine what we can create while awake Imagine if we could dream together The things we could do Dreams cut through the darkness of the unconscious mind Sometimes I don't want to wake up As darkness consumes me in the night I find solace in the light that waits for me within my mind I dreamed we were floating away on a crimson cloud Not worried about where we were going But we knew we were happy and free Slipping ever slowly through a hollow gate It devours and gnaws Not seen until it's too late We can't see it But we know it's there A silent killer Creeping closer every day For a mere blink I think that's why humans have such a hard time accepting the end Our first and last perception is this reality Through experiences that brought joy Which turn into memories of sorrow I feel so real
