From MOTHER OF DREAMS MAKE US ALIVE EP by The Oddmen
lyrics
MOTHER OF DREAMS
Mother of dreams make us alive
For we are your child
And we shall drink your milk
And we shall live forever in your shadow
Mother of dreams keep us sedated
For this isn't real
And we won't stay awake
And we won't try to fight this feeling that you spread
Mother of dreams border my soul
And if I shall fail
Blame me and make me ache
And I will never lose my way again
Mother of dreams bless me with visions
Sweet velvet visions
And I know that bliss ain't ever as sweet without the sour
Oh mother
Mother of dreams colour my nights
For I need a shelter
Under these giant leaves
I'll rest and forget I once lived out of this world
Paint the inside of my eyes
Make a mirror out of blue skies
Childhood
Sea of undiscovered sounds
Step on higher grounds
Reversed
Mountains digged by the lightning
Open view to unfrightening
Faces
That barely don't exist
They're just shapes in the mist
Or maybe
I saw someone
