The Gatekeeper I Am

I rode in on your dreams

My desires become your nightmares

You cannot free yourself from me unless you cease dreaming

Sleep is your prison

I am the gatekeeper, riding in on your dreams

Colors are bright here

Vivid and true

I whisper your fantasies

I compose your songs

Music in your ears, my symphony

You cannot free yourself of me, unless you cease to hear the chords

Silence is not your friend

I am music, the violin strokes the prison bars

Sounds are loud here

Vivid and true

The piano caresses your soul

I write your story

My inspiration is your future, my path your destiny

You cannot free yourself from me unless you cease to understand

Books encircle your mind

I am infinity, you are my center

Words are empowering here

Vivid and true

They provoke your mind

I am your voice

Your speech is my drug and I tell your story

You cannot free yourself from me unless you become mute

Your voice is your song

I am the songstress, the world my stage

Your song is my biography

Vivid and true

The music universal

I rode in on your nightmares

I am the keeper of death and I hold your spirit

You cannot free yourself from me unless you live for eternity

Your horror is my sustenance

I thrive on your fear, it is my heartbeat

Blood is flowing here

Vivid and true

The result is madness
