Dream Without Pain
I woke up from a nightmare to a dream
All that I have learned from defeat
Its all been such a blur
The devil’s had his turn
And may my path be lit up by the bridges that I’ve burned
Say goodbye to Santa Fe
You and I will never be the same
Goodbye to sorrow and to blame
I want a dream without pain
I woke up from a nightmare to a dream
Riding shotgun in the mercy seat
It’s all been such a blur
But now I’ve found the nerve
And may my path be lit up by the bridges that I’ve burned
Say goodbye to Santa Fe
You and I will never be the same
Goodbye to sorrow and to blame
I want a dream without pain
Ellum’s deep and Austin’s low
You can stay there but I have to go
You can stand there in the flames
I want a dream without pain
