I used to dance round a candlestick flame in the darkness
And I used to scream my own freedom at hollow black skies
And I grew from a seed that was soaked in the blood of my likeness
To a ghost in the alleyway watching my childhood die

I fell in love with a tourniquet girl in the city
I found a rosary broken and laid at her feet
And I prayed for the end of my suffering, greed, and self-pity
To a god that lay twisted and motionless down on the street

And I had a dream last night
That everyone woke at the same time
With a loud, loud noise and a bright light
We thought to ourselves in the back of our minds
What a beautiful dream it is we leave behind

And oh child
Isn't it just like they told us
Watching the colors collide
All in an instant it's over
Just close your tired eyes
Picture a city of roses
A blooming skyline sunrise

I used to float through a merrigold sky by the ocean
And I used to ring from the steeple of rhythm and rhyme
And I grew from a waterfall pulled by my own inner motion
To a cliff by the harborside cut by the passing of time

And I had a dream last night
That everyone woke at the same time
With a loud, loud noise and a bright light
We thought to ourselves in the back of our minds
What a beautiful dream it is we leave behind
What a beautiful dream it is
We leave behind
