The Dream of Lies

lyrics

Cherished relics entrusted to me crumble in the wake of time
Histories erased forever reduced to dreams of lies

Altered perspectives awaken in us a reason to deny
Things believed so far above us burnt offerings falling from the sky

I believed every incremental lie
And thus deceived, my faith so denied
Fables lure with haunting fascination
Pressed upon my childhood’s imagination
Now I choose to revoke my inspiration
I refuse to invoke my inclination to believe once again

Even in our grand disorder structure still implies
A frame exists onto which we hang our favorite dream of lies

Everything we know has an ending, only nothing can remain
Prodigious efforts yield to cold and futile disdain

Stunning choral patterns break into a rapturous demise
Opposing harmonies disintegrate upon a fractured dream of lies

Atonal constructs rupture into a haunting dream of lies
Harmonic transgressions struggle beyond a chaotic dream of lies

Music and Sound: Adam McLean
Lyrics and Voice: Gregory Francis
