I’m finding it hard to sleep,

Knowing what going on under my feet

Keeping quiet in secrecy

Until the heralds call for me

So into the darkness we lead

To the gallows of wool-gathered dreams

Into the darkness we lead

Beyond the pillars of obscurity

Do we hide behind the comfort of a lie?

Are we the same, you and I?

When we’re lying naked in the night

So into the darkness we lead

To the gallows of wool-gathered dreams

Into the darkness we lead

Beyond the pillars of obscurity

Light the flame and look to the Tower of Dreams!

No surface dwellers can see the things that I can see

No mercy for the sound of mind

We’ll find the blind and gouge out their eyes

So they can see what lies behind

The darkness of their eyes, thin fabric veiled lies

With their vacant gazes, absent minds

No one’s looking for the pleasures that we hide

Inside our fortress on high

We’re casting pearls to the swine

As they feed amongst the troughs with the flies

Smoke and mirrors in the night,

Clouded judgment, doubt in my eyes

I’ve lost what I’m trying to find

A hidden key, lost memory

Forgotten past, or distant dream

I only see what I’m wanted to see

By the Tower of Dreams

They’re calling me

Seven sounds, seven trumpets

One-by-One

To a distant star

Mount the steed and ride forth into the dark

This Tower of Dreams will see you lost amongst the stars

No mercy for the sound of mind

We’ll find the blind and gouge out their eyes

So they can see what lies behind…

…a man out of time
