Dreaming - Coppelius

As I get up and take a walk

Somebody starts to talk

I can hear people already dead

Didn’t understand what they said

In front of me the hangman glares

Walking up the gallows' stairs

An endless fall soon I’ll be dead

In panic I awake in a damp bed

What can a dream reveal?

Especially if it seems so real?

Knights are fighting for their god

Arrows fly is that my blood

A dungeon cell is where I lay

I can scream but can’t get away

It doesn’t stop I feel doomed

They’ve put salt in my open wound

Doesn’t matter how hard I fight

It only makes the collar tight

What can a dream reveal?

Especially if it seems so real?

I’m living in a air balloon

I want to go to the moon

All alone the sky is black

The balloon is gone, I can’t get back

Suddenly in a web I’m caught

I see a spider slowly walk

I twist and turn but it’s not enough

Screaming and thrashing I can’t wake up

What can a dream reveal?

Especially if it seems so real?
