Dreality

We used to be blind as a bat
Taking life in stride, one day at a time
Our innocence our guiding light
The glow not reaching the darkest corners of reality

Today the truth is splashed across the front page
Atrocities taking center stage
People breaking, people hiding
As fact meets fiction and that pretty world crumbles

We used to feel invincible, untouchable
Opportunity was still knocking
Its fist relentless in our pursuit of dreams
But we soon awoke to this nightmare

Today a fresh fire flows through our veins
Rebel minds fight back, casting words aside
Backs rigid to the sticks and stones
For from the black cloud, we find the rainbow
