Across Star Painted Skies I Reached For You

Is it over yet
A child hiding in bed, covers pulled high
Protected from the monsters
That would live in the closet

Too high a price we pay
But consumerism has taught us well
Overlook our needs
A greater picture
All for the unfulfilling desires of the present
Relent, and wish for more

Turn on the lights
Monsters will disappear
Faster than you think
Chased under the bed
The nightmares, not so easily
Only to come out tomorrow

Oh, but I forgot to mention
So too, would the dreams
