Picture book stories films on the scream Image of what they may have been Here on the doorstep That vision is here War of the worlds the ultimate fear Time stood still on the verge of midnight The power is gone there won't be a fight Cities in ashes the seas run red Life disappeared though nothing was said In the story book you stare In life it's already there You have walked an empty road Never stepped out into the cold Run away froum your fears Run away from this life Lie awake in your dreams tonight Hide away all these years Hide away in your tears Live your life in your dreams tonight People now running run for ther lives Into the hills anywhere the'd hide Now what's safe all sanctuary gone Eyes in the sky seek the very last one Few were spared and taken away What lay ahead no one could say Journey that would take us where Life had gone who would care Ask yourself if you are dreaming Wonder what it's all about We will never see the future How far that we can go A race to see what lies beyond Live your life forget the shadow Open up your eyes and see the world Take each day and forget tomorrow For each one could be the last No one could ever say your prayers
