I'd often tell you what I dream about
Forgotten lives, familiar faces
You couldn't translate a goddamned thing for me
The beauty lived in a place that came and went with the night
Can you shed a little light for me?
On the forests and the snow, that come vibrant like they're alive
But in the daylight, they'll reiterate one common goal:
to kill the dreamer in you
Kinda didn't even realize
Just where and when the shift took place
These things happen slowly and subtly
We watch in shock and awe as the majesty gets stripped away
Can you shed a little light for me?
On the blood in the snow, that comes straight from the horse's mouth
And in the shadows, they'll wait until you're on your own
Then kill the dreamer in you
They'll kill the dreamer in you
They'll kill the dreamer in me
They'll bring the system to it's knees
They'll kill the dreams of us
They'll kill the dreams of them
Don't let them look you in the eyes
Hold on, because we're not finished yet
And it's up to us to realize that
The final nail in the coffin is your to hammer down.
Can you flat-out fucking lie to me
Just to keep me bold
To give me strength to carry on
Because they're on the doorstep,
and delivering one common fate
To kill the dreamer in you
Ya they'll kill the dreams of us
Ya they'll kill the dreams of them
Don't let them look you in the eyes
Froggy eyes

So many great moments and a unique snapshot in time of some very talented Alberta based songwriters. I'm lucky to call skinny a brother. Taylor Ackerman
