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
