lyrics

The dreams that will come to you when you’re wide open
To let them into your mind happens more often times
Not while you’re waiting no not while you’re waiting for anything
And we’ve all got a story of some happy ending
Like the man who lived next to the man who lost everything
And outside these games we play does loosing or winning mean anything

The sun shines today
And God is in the garden
As I lie awake
And dream of another life

Back in 1718 I lost all my hope then
I was drowned in this river and brought back to life again
For all I know now I will die on the day I find hope again
Because the devil here worships just one man’s religion
with a shadow cast over the light that may reach him
you show me an angel and I’ll show you a devil that follows him

The sun shines today
And God is in the garden
As I lie awake
And dream of another life

And above the door I found keys that were left behind
To hold back the fear that I lock myself in behind
And outside this room I will find some new fear I can hide behind
And if we all started over with just one new decision
That was made for the sake of or in spite of my living here
And for all I know now I will question the truth
From the meaning I’ve found for all that I can do

When the sun shines today
And God is in the garden
As I lie awake
To dream of another life
