Still Dreaming

No I'll not renounce my views, do what others do
I'd rather drink the hemlock than be like you, to my soul untrue
It never gets easier, so quit tryin' pleasing her
Everything is a choice so let me hear your voice

Born in October night, feeling was out a sight
Skin I'm in now and then moves like a meteorite
Noise in our culture is built in our nature
Another era will decode as we head toward rapture

Suppose we're all gifted, suppose that the mist is
A metaphor for change, suppose the veil will be lifted
Sacrament that I hold, close and I feel noble
Solar marigolds light the souls return from that other world

Sometimes when I'm awake I can't tell if I'm still dreaming
There's so much here at stake
When every moment is just fleeting
Sometimes when I'm awake I can't tell if I'm still dreaming

It never gets easier, so quit tryin' pleasing her
Everything is a choice so let me hear your voice

Rip up the evening post kill parasitic hosts
We can shoulder all the karma that came with Los Alamos
Return the sky bottle blue, return that forgotten hue
A looking glass world seeing into and through you

Soul and body are my twins, the latter will give in
When the former views the ocean as not too cold to get in
To Martian life forms these waters are real warm
But beware we can change the weather and create a snowstorm

Sometimes when I'm awake I can't tell if I'm still dreaming
There's so much here at stake
When every moment is just fleeting
Sometimes when I'm awake I can't tell if I'm still dreaming

No I'll not renounce my views and do what others do
I'd rather drink the hemlock than be like you, to my soul untrue
It never gets easier, so quit tryin' pleasing her
Everything is a choice so let me hear your voice
