I cried for you Living a dream
one million years living a dream
I cried for you floating downstream
one million years towards the waterfall
Meanwhile I got along just fine
with my long time fears
My slave and my master Follow the sound
were standing side by side follow the sound
My slave and my master feeling earthbound
were standing side by side heed the piper's call
Then they walked away
without taking me for a ride
Put a chain round my neck Seeing the light
put a spike through my heart seeing the light
Put a chain round my neck on the coldest night
put a spike through my heart wrapped in your pall
I will show you where to go
if you show me where to start
Nothing's gonna heal this wound Living a dream
cut down to the bone living a dream
Nothing's gonna heal this wound floating downstream
cut down to the bone towards the waterfall
I hear a thousand voices
they're talking on their own
It's getting scary here Walking on sand
the void is creeping in walking on sand
It's getting scary here across the new land
the void is creeping in away from it all
But if you dare to come with me, Babe
I'll show you places I have been
