When I was younger
I had a dream
I was Icarus flying away.
The sun melts my wings
Suddenly I’m falling,
And I am jolted awake.
Well as a boy I had dreamt...
I was carried away
In the arms of a father.
But, he didn’t stay
All’s well and done.
I wasn’t much of son.
Beloved my Michael
I saw you frown.
I had a dream
Where you started to drown.
In the River Raisin
Which runs through the town:
Where you live,
We were born,
And ran around
I write a message
I won’t send, he won’t read.
Why can’t I let go of anything?
If memory serves I deserve nothing
Yet I’m the first to receive.
When our mother got sick
I had wept.
I had a dream I was lost out in space--
I got older that day.
Well she survived,
But it’s too far of a drive.
I was beat at the hands of a drunk.
I still want to scream
When I dream of those days.
When I dream of the pain.
I know it’s not right,
But I’m too weak to fight.
Beloved my Michael
I saw you frown.
I had a dream
Where you started to drown.
In the River Raisin
Which runs through the town:
Where you live,
We were born,
And ran around.
Beloved my Michael
I saw you frown.
I had a dream
Where you started to drown.
In the River Raisin
Which runs through the town:
Where you live,
We were born,
And ran around.
