The Gulf Between Me and You

Don’t know exactly what I came here for

Can’t find the hidden key that unlocks the door

How could my nation be threatened by a Babylon Whore?

It seems the sleep walkers don’t want to know anymore,

Took a trip on the astral plane

To a life that sometimes seems in vain

I’ve found lies behind all the truths they claim

It seems that all phantasms remain the same,

Past lives seem distant but come back to haunt

More nocturnal visions than you could ever want

Let us dare to take an interdimensional jaunt

My Dear you’re looking a bit gaunt,

Although it seems that this is a bit stream of consciousness

Coming from an existence filled with excess

Many solutions in life are but an educated guess

While so many dwell in loneliness,

Tears that glisten like morning dew

This distance between us like a gulf between me and you

Obstructing the beauty of a sky of blue

All the illusions we eventually see through,

The gates of perception are far and few

There are manifestations beyond your point of view

Individual worlds who seek what they think is true

At some point the ultimate debt is due.
