Dreams Of Ordinary Men Lyrics

Dreams Of Ordinary Men lyrics

There is an essence in the water 

There is a spirit in the sky 

There is a spider drawing webs 

To crucify a fly 



The fly is drawing nearer 

Just as if he knew 

How we all must fit the pattern 

How the pattern must fit you 



Everybody say amen 

These are the dreams of ordinary men 

This is the world that we'll be living in 

Out of the dreams of ordinary men 



I mistook all your intentions 

But you never did deceive 

I have a helpless fascination 

For the web you wove for me 



We had nightly public beatings 

But we slept in private hells 

And I feel no guilt or vengeance 

We just couldn't help ourselves 



So what's the answer I have to find 

To change my world like I change my mind 

And change my life 

If I could only change my dreams
