Dream or Die


Air so strong
Though none breathe in
The awe of dreams
Which come from within
 
The choice is here
What will it be?
To dream a dream
Or die in fear
 
With clouds grey
And rivers blue
No other can choose
The best for you
 
To dream a dream
What a thought
Is it given?
Or must it be bought?
 
Or die in fear
Oh what a sad tale
That one must die
Instead of set sail
 
With mountains low
And valleys high
And one so confused
To dream or die
 
The choice is here
What will it be?
To dream a dream
Or die in fear
