Within 
 

Inside a temple pure and kind

Alone and in a dream

Isolate the swirling world

Dream of things unseen
 

Innocence is wild and free

Innocence is natures sweep

Innocence is laughter's glee

Innocence is hidden deep
 

Replace it with a fear to love

Replace it with a zombie march

Replace it with a lack of trust

Replace it with a soul of starch
 

Alive in sleep and daydreams deep

Alive anon in unknown scapes

Alive beneath a mask of smiles

Alive in darkness tender sweeps
 

Kill not the temple pure and kind

Judge not the wild and free

Accept love and banish fear

And live the daydreams deep
