This is a nice little tune about some poor fellow that had an unfortunate encounter with a voodoo chick or a witch or something.
Lyrics:
v1: Don't you try to look inside my scarred and clouded mind
You don't wanna know what my eyes have seen
She left me here to cry alone, to swallow back my pride back my pride
My only comfort rain and black caffeine
PreCh: Muddled by her mystery, frenzied out of control
First she broke my heart, then she tried to eat my soul
Ch1: I was born for Adventure, but I should have known better
when I saw hellfire in her eyes
I was born for Adventure, but I should have known better
What a pin in a doll implies
I was born for adventure, but I should have known better
Voodoos that paralyze
I was born for adventure, but I should have known better
The power to mesmerize
V2: Her body moved like a whip that cracks, it filled my lonely eyes
You can't handle what my mind has seen
I travel now a lonely road to nowhere but the sky
bearing a soul formed of Plasticine
Pre Chorus
Ch 2: I was born for adventure, but I should have known better
When I saw Armageddon in her eyes
I was born...
A pentagram on her thigh
I was born...
When whips crack the sky
I was born...
now my souls been paralyzed
(guitar)
Chorus 1, Chorus 2

![Are You Dreaming? by The FOG (original)
Back story: About 5 years ago I had knee surgery and spent a week loaded on pain meds and watching movies. I watched a movie called Waking Life which in my hydrocodone state seemed so profound that I scribbled down a bunch of notes. I wrote this tune from those notes... I really dont know if they have anything to do with the movie at this point.
[check out my 1977 Gibson RD I got off craigs list. Looks cool with my Fenderbird dont ya think?]
Lyrics:
Hey, are you dreaming?
Just iron thoughts and feeling blind
Its been too long since you took the time
To crawl outside your mind
Hey, are you dreaming?
Just an infant left behind
Dreamings been dismissed from time
Banished from language by the blind
All the dreams we held so close
Have vanished in a wisp of smoke
And dreamers can no longer sing along
Promises lit up the night
Soul and dreams give up the fight
The dreamers lost, alone and has no song
Hey! Are you dreaming?
Hey! Are you dreaming?
Guitar
Tell me one thing: whats it like being a
character in someone elses dream?
Guitar
Hey, are you dreaming?
Like a gypsy song in double time
Wind keeps blowing a path realigned
Dream ejecting from your mind
All the dreams we held so close
Are still alive behind the smoke
The dreamers may still find their song
Promise lit up the night
Souls and dreams take up the fight
This dreamer finds he can sing along
Hey are you dreaming
Hey are you dreaming
Hey are you dreaming
Hey are you dreaming
