I. Innocence

(Instrumental)

II. Cold Daze

The coldness of confusion
Hangs in the morning air
As brazen bells ring reality
To announce the conquerer dawn

Removed from nights, fleeting trance
Plunged headlong into cold daze
Where in a circle we wander
The barren wastes of our pasts.....

III. Daylight Dreamers

Daylight dreamers awaken on
deserts of desperation.
Lonely lives learn to live on
islands of isolation.
Surrounded by violent oceans
of hate and hopeless sorrows.
Daylight dreamers envision
tranquil seas in safe tomorrows.

Dreaming through the darkened day
along tempest torn strands.
Desperately grasping the grains
of hope that flit through our hands.
As they fall, we tighten our hold.
While the waves claim the final few
Taken without ceremony.
they drift out of view.

Washed away with the tides of time.
Slipped through our fingers as dreams do.....

IV. Quietus

From sleeping visions,
daily we're torn
In waking hours,
hopes are forlorn
Is all we do and all we dream,
doomed to drown in a hopeless stream?

Wishing life were made of lasting visions,
in eternal sleep.
And if that rest were filled with sorrow,
still we'd sleep.

In the madness of a silent eternity.
We'd find solace in,
false visions that protect us from reality.

Enter ivory gates through midnight skies.
Daylight dreamers in private parades,
perform before perpetual dawn.
As dusk engulfs the gate of horn.

Ivory towers appear beyond the gate.
Invisible fortresses of escape,
transversed by ramparts made by hope and fears.
Impervious to reality.

V. Ivory Tower
