"Deja Vu"

©1993 Shawn Kendrick Hall

I close my eyes and slowly drift out to sea
no worldly ties i'm gently starting to dream
someday i'll wake and forget everything i see
One day to make everything i dreamt to be
I'd once had a dream of two five ten
it had never began and never did end
like black and white and you and i
compelled to touch you though couldn't try
Red white black blue yellow rose
forced to draw one of those
velvet silken smooth sharp as a knife
draw the wrong one and forfeit my life
ten little ten little ten little dream boys
nightmares plague their minds they start to fear toys
too vague too strong too pure too plain too red
too much not enough too smooth too rough too dead
and now i see the hole of the rose
like to the depths of hell only lovers go
and the rose garden my dreams are alive
so into the rosebush i reach i dive
