[Verse 1]
What do you see?
Is it your own reflection that's starin' at you?
An out-of-body perception?
Or some kind of stranger that laughs at a fool
[Verse 2]
Is it the world that has changed?
Or is it you at the sound of the knell?
And how did they fail to prepare you
For all that awaits once you're out of your shell?
[Verse 3]
Whoa, whoa
Feel the cold breeze in your face
Walk on, one way
End of days
[Verse 4]
Time to face what it's all about
May the waves take you in
A long way from home, you're out on your own
To crave all alone and alone you'll realize
[Verse 5]
What life turns out to be
Future ain't what it used to be
When all givens they fall into abeyance, fall into abeyance
Let it all wash over me
Requiem for a dream
[Verse 6]
How long have we stayed in concealment
Chilled to the marrow, crept stealthily?
Celestial lights satiatin' the dark
Of deplorable reality
[Verse 7]
Every breath towards what shone with a luster
Horizons that sentineled dreams
Now doesn't it even seem crazy
To be aghast at what things will not be
[Verse 8]
Whoa, whoa
See the rainbow slowly fade
Walk on, one way
End of days
[Verse 9]
Time to face what it's all about
May the waves take you in
A long way from home, you're out on your own
To crave all alone and alone you'll realize
[Verse 10]
What life turns out to be
Future ain't what it used to be
Fall into abeyance, fall into abeyance
Let it all wash over me
Requiem for a dream
[Verse 11]
There's someone by your side
Four steps behind
Makes sure you keep the pace
And love the grind
[Verse 12]
Time to face what it's all about
May the waves take you in
A long way from home, you're out on your own
To crave all alone and alone you'll realize
[Verse 13]
Future ain't what it used to be
And all givens they fall into abeyance, fall into abeyance
Let it all wash over me
Requiem for a dream
