The Dream Farmer


 Hello there dreamer, early rise
You're fooling no one with your lies
Staring all night at the ceiling
So numb, you've lost all feeling

You look so old and weathered
When did you last untether
From the waking, fast and deep
Let your body fall asleep

Chorus
In the shadows of the night
You might just feel a pang of fright
But do not fret and do not fear
The dream farmer is lurking near
Then just as we begin to wake
All our dreams are his to take
Prime for plucking, he must choose
Which dreams he'll keep and use

He'll plant and grow and then he'll know
What feeds the gloom, and rears the woe
What strokes the ego of the foe
What stokes the flame, or lets it glow

With his bag of tricks he'll spawn
Taking dreams well into dawn
Then slowly cultivate each one
Plant and nurture 'til he's done

Chorus
In the shadows of the night
You might just feel a pang of fright
But do not fret and do not fear
The dream farmer is lurking near
Then just as we begin to wake
All our dreams are his to take
Prime for plucking, he must choose
Which dreams he'll keep and use

Rest now dreamer, peace to you
And soon you'll sleep the whole night through
Just close your eyes, and take a break
You won't remember once you wake

Chorus
In the shadows of the night
You might just feel a pang of fright
But do not fret and do not fear
The dream farmer is lurking near
Then just as we begin to wake
All our dreams are his to take
Prime for plucking, he must choose
Which dreams he'll keep and use

Do not fret and do not fear
The dream farmer is lurking near
