Burn Utopia, Burn!

It's not your imagination It's not that you love your chains It's not for lack of self-identification with the martyr It's not that you don't feel his pain Cause dreams cannot save us all Our hearts are closed when our eyes are open Dreams cannot save us all Your dreams cannot save us all Our hearts are closed when our eyes are open Dreams cannot save us all Reality holds supremacy over serenity In conflict - never peace It's only when we turn our backs - on the impossible A balance may be reached Cause dreams cannot save us all Our hearts are closed when our eyes are open Dreams cannot save us all Your dreams cannot save us all Our hearts are closed when our eyes are open Dreams cannot save us all I've heard your voices - I've seen your visions Your soul is willing but your body is frail I've studied your plans - I've tagged along on all your missions And I'll cry with you - every time that each one of them fails Is this the triumph of pessimism The sum result of an emotionless decay of age Maybe it's just me and not the way of this world - weight of this world But if that's true why do you look so afraid Every time I say Dreams cannot save us all Our hearts are closed when our eyes are open Dreams cannot save us all You dreams cannot save us Our hearts are closed when our eyes are open Your dreams cannot save us all
