Dreams Of Our Fathers

Oh, I`m choking, I`m choking<br>On the smoke from this burning house<br>I claw and I scrape<br>But I can`t seem to get out<br>But who then, who is this<br>That`s scratching from the ground<br>Oh, it`s my world, too<br>But whose gold is this I`m digging out?<br><br>When we go, where we go<br>When we`re dead<br>Is the verdict still out?<br>Do we get into line<br>To line up with those long dead now?<br>With the muffled tears of sorrow<br>Bones underground<br>Is this time our time?<br>Yes, it is<br>Without or with this shadow of doubt<br><br>I don`t want to wake up<br>Lost in the Dreams of our Fathers<br>Oh, it`s such a waste child<br>To live and die for the Dreams of our Fathers<br>Though I must confess, yes<br>My view is a wonder about this<br>This love I possess, love<br>Must be the Dreams of our Fathers<br><br>I wanna go, I wanna run<br>We turn, so sure someone`s looking down<br>It`s haunting me, haunting me<br>Leaves us here to get out<br>Though I don`t believe, I don`t believe<br>This flavor in my mouth<br>Is from my tongue alone<br>So bitter I wanna spit it out<br><br>I repeat these words<br>They come out<br>Under the blue light in the sky<br>My empty pages are filling up<br>With these wicked lies<br>But I hear deep in myself<br>An echo, an echo<br>Of empty, empty emptiness<br>Comes up and swells inside<br><br>I don`t want to wake up<br>Lost in the Dreams of our Fathers<br>Oh, it`s such a waste child<br>To live and die for the Dreams of our Fathers<br>Though I must confess, yes<br>My view is a wonder about this<br>This love I possess, love<br>It must be the Dreams of our Fathers<br><br>Rain on my head<br>Rain on my head<br>Rain on me<br>And then give me air<br>Rain on my love<br>Again and again<br>Why can`t I dream you away from me?<br><br>Look here, look here<br>Bloated, floating<br>Go belly down<br>Belly up in the water<br>But who is this here that`s drowned?<br>We followed a drunken man<br>He got us all spinning round<br>But it`s like he swallowed himself<br>And didn`t leave us a way out<br><br>I don`t want to wake up<br>Lost in the Dreams of our Fathers<br>Oh, it`s such a shame child<br>To live and die for the Dreams of our Fathers<br>Though I must confess, yes<br>My view is a wonder about this<br>This love I possess, love<br>It must be the Dreams of our Fathers<br><br>This love I possess, love<br>It must be the Dreams of our Fathers<br>This love I possess, love<br>It must be the Dreams of our Fathers<br>This love I possess, love<br>It must be the love of our fathers<br><br>The dreams<br>The dreams<br>The dreams<br>This love I possess love
