Day-dreams, Nightmares and Premonitions...

Wandering thru this concrete and asphalt maze
Dreaming of a better way
...got one more song to play
and this one doesn't have any words.
It is the song of my heart.
Listen and you will hear my joys and sorrows,
my suffering, my pleasures.
Listen.
Listen and you will see my Day-dreams, Nightmares and Premonitions...
You will hear my Confessions, Laments, and Battle-Cries...
Listen.
Listen and the illusions will be revealed
Everything that was hidden will be brought to the light.
I have wandered the highways and by-ways of this fallen world 
with my hands empty and my eyes wide open
I have felt deeply the suffering and depravity of my fellow man
I have heard the songs of the minstrels and the slaves...
I have listened to the dirge of the dying 
and the songs of the martyrs whose blood cries out from the ground...
and I have learned the songs of freedom and I sing them to you now...
Listen.
Daydreams, Nightmares and Premonitions
Confessions, Laments and Battle-Cries
Listen.
It is the song of my heart.
