Indian Dreams

young hearts stay true

stay smart see through

the stories that they say

the reasons that they play

are not for you.

it's big toys for big wars

pink noise, white scars

the dreamer and the dream

become the screamer and the scream

i think that's true.

because my indian dreams

and my animal screams from the other side

and my baby cries out

while my longing breathes life

into what has died

and my sleeper dreams hope

and my dreamer sleepwalks through the shadowline

and my praying one copes

knowing truth will draw the line

in my indian dreams

to watch brings shame

small words for big pain

our love has been maligned

so easily redefined

can you see through

to one love, one soul,

one chance through one whole

the few who steal the key

are the ones to say we're free

is that your goal?

while your indian dreams

and your animal screams from the other side

and your baby cries out

while your longing breathes life

into what has died

and your sleeper dreams hope

and your dreamer sleepwalks through the shadowline

and your praying one copes

knowing truth will draw the line

in your indian dreams

so young hearts stay true

stay smart, see through

the stories that they say

the reasons that they play

are not for you

it's our choice and our time

they don't wait, they don't cry

when you can run with the river

why run with the river rat?

while our indian dreams

and our animal screams from the other side

and our baby cries out

while our longing breathes life

into what has died

and our sleeper dreams hope

and our dreamer sleepwalks through the shadowline

and our praying one copes

knowing truth will draw the line

in our indian dreams
