Death to the Dreamer


Here's some new lyrics to a song Lacy and I will be recording tonight for the upcoming The Lost Narrative album. Its a theme I think plagues culture - this notion that we remain in the comfortable and never really pursue our wildest dreams.

DEATH TO THE DREAMER
(c) 2010 Ross Christopher

VERSE 1
You beg my conversation
And rule the ways I judge
You stomp on dreams and trying
And keep me comfortable
You've never had to try hard
To pry me from myself -
'Cause self is god, and you preach all day

VERSE 2
Its easy and feels right
And death to the dreamer
To failing and trying again
Death to the ride of chance
We know how it ends -
To ever being sold your lies

CHORUS
Lies - sold your lies

Lies - 10,000 lies

Lies - been sold your lies

(sold your lies)

VERSE 3
Death to purer vision
And death to me
Death to ever being
And death to free
To love and follow passion
When comfort's on the line -
Death to being sold your lies

CHORUS
Lies - sold your lies

Lies - 10,000 lies
Lies - been sold your lies

(sold your lies)
