Dave Matthews - Dreams Of Our Fathers lyrics

I'm choking I'm choking On the smoke from this burning house I claw and I scrape But I can't seem to get out oh But who the who is this That's scratching from the ground It's my world too But who's gold is this I'm digging out When we go where we go When we're dead Is the verdict still out Do we get into line To line up with those long dead now With muffled tears of sorrow For bones underground This is our time yes it is Without or with this shadow of doubt Don't want to wake up Lost in the dreams of our fathers It's such a waste child To live and die for the dreams of our fathers Though I must confess yes My dreams are a wonder about this This love I possess love Must be the dreams of our fathers I wanna go I wanna run We turn and so sure someone's looking down It's haunting me haunting me Leaves us here to get out Though I don't believe I don't believe This flavor in my mouth Is from my tongue alone So bitter I wanna spit it out I repeat these words They come out Under the blue light in this sky My empty pages are filling up With these wicked lies But I hear deep in myself An echo and echo Of empty empty emptiness Comes up and swells inside I don't want to wake up Lost in the dreams of our fathers It's such a waste child To live and die for the dreams of our fathers Though I must confess yes My views are a wonder about this This love I possess love It must be the dreams of our fathers Rain on my head Rain on my head Rain on me Can give this up Rain on my life Again and again Why can't I dream this away from me Look at you look at you find new Bloated floating Go belly down Belly up in the water But who is this here that drowned We followed a drunken man Got us spinning round But it's like he swallowed himself And didn't leave us a way out I don't want to wake up Lost in the dreams of our fathers It's such a shame child To live and die for the dreams of our fathers Though I must confess yes My view is a wonder about this This love I possess love It must be the dreams of our fathers This love I posses love It must be the dreams of our fathers This love I posses love It must be the dreams of our fathers This love I posses love It must be the love of our fathers
