Night Vision

Submitted by Baz Ryley

Under a blanket of fear.
Down a bottomless pit.
I've been waiting for this night to open my eyes

Wide awake I see in the dark,
see the fences breaking apart,
get together with my old friends

Once again we breathe in the air,
escape to somewhere far from nowhere

Where the sky's been tainted red,
where the sky's been tainted..

Up on a bank by a stream trading memories for dreams
fading echoes and pictures we burn at the seams

And now our wings are painted gold,
they'll make idols of us yet,
empty promises they sold,
will reach their best before dates soon...

I can see it all (x4)
