Dionysian

[Verse 1]
Losing our lives through dreaming
Escaping both good and bad
Oblivious apathy ending in emptiness, unrealized actual life
Living for dreams unending
Actualized true self
Routinely growing in power and true self-confidence

[Chorus 1]
Opaque blue smoke
Streaming away from us
Enlightenment dawns
Surreal contentment then

[Verse 2]
No way to think of leaving
Transcendent world, sacred land
The heart leaves untilled innermost sanctity
Perpetual search for meaning
The gift of innocence
Our lives’ thirst for Dionysian

[Chorus 2]
Opaque blue smoke
Absorbed into changing forms
Out of phase goals
Come into re-focus
For life grateful
Mind expands, energized
A radiant hope
Dreams etherealized

[Bridge]
Burning through the night
Cauterizing pain
Coded symbols deciphered
Rays of clarity

[Verse 3]
Answering call to life, affirmation
Echoing in haze
Endless cycle returns, ironic mirror
Reflecting memories
Foreseen successive chain of causation
Fulfills destiny
Once chance to break the hold of fate’s prison
Freedom through escape

[Verse 6]
No chance to think of leaving
The inner world, sacred land
Living for dreams unending
The gift of life, Dionysian

[Verse 4]
[?]
Once chance to break the hold of fate’s prison
Freedom through escape
Dionysian
