Analysis of I dream
I dream of the day
That I am free
From all the things
That torturer me
This life has become
But nothing more
Than broken dreams
Of forevers door
Hopes and dream
They haunt my soul
As strong as the rivers
As black as coal
Foreboding the times
When life was great
A false sense of gay
And learning to hate
The end draws near
As I sit in disbelief
For the end it will come
And it will give no relief
