When The Night Escaped The Dream

I woke up too early

All those voices had to scream

I was just about to figure it all out

When the night escaped the dream

Fireflies are taking flight

In the garden of the night

In the shadow of the moon

I begin to chase their light

Listening to the crickets call

They fade away as the rain falls

Morning will be coming soon

Handing its light to the afternoon

I woke up too early

All those voices had to scream

I was just about to figure it all out

When the night escaped the dream

Chased by phantoms down a winding street

Rundown and tired I try to stay quiet

but they can still hear my heartbeat

Street lights shine through my window

There's a hard rain on the roof

Hoping my soul is ready and waterproof

Fireflies are taking flight

In the garden of the night

Morning will be coming soon

As I fade into its twilight

I woke up too early

All those voices had to scream

I was just about to figure it all out

When the night escaped the dream
