I can sleep
I can dream of a better day
I can dream it went a
different way.

But I sleep to dream
And I dream to escape.

I can write.
I can write about a better future.
Whole my words pour from the past.

But I write of dreams
But I write of escape.

And don't feel to safe and happy
Don't let yourself down again
I can dream and I can escape
But I can't sleep til that
brighter future.
I can only live for today
And hope for tomorrow
It will be better someday
