Lesson

I've learned things that fly must all crash down again

Her tears are falling like the ice of Hell
And echo as they fall
Like the voices in her head
That plague and slowly drive her mad

Close your eyes, close your eyes
And shut the world out from your mind
Her nights are filled with dreamless sleep
She hopes and prays for their release
Close your eyes, close your eyes
And dream about your world could be

Why are the days so long?
Why do the nights collapse?
Why is my throat so dry?
Why can't you sleep at night?
Why?

She dreams her world is full of life
And warm, her tears begin to melt
Running freely down her face
She flies and find her peace at last

Close your eyes, close your eyes
And scream as you come crashing down
She wakes in cold sweat, breathing fast
She lives but broken she remains

Close your eyes, close your eyes
And dream of when you'll fly away
