I Don't See It
Shambhala 1988 (Ronkonkoma)
I hear a voice within my mind.
I see a dream within a dream.
I don' understand what I see.
I know its just a scene.
Perhaps I find a place called home.
Or I will see a place called Shambala.
Everytime I hear a voice within.
Never do I see the words.
I don't see but I know this is real.
Words don't count but dreams do.
I see a place called Shambhala.
I don't hear it but I know its real.
One word is all it takes.
Five words are all that count.
And the end is near but I am far.
No one knows but I do hear from above.
All I see is words and all I see is future.
No one knows but I do see this ending soon.
All I need is to believe.
And I see its all just make believe until its clear I do not see til its ended.
The end.
