In quiet night
I silently dreamed
That I could see for miles around

Amidst a garden
Full of clouds
I could barely see the ground

Above the mountains
But below the sky
I await the silent dawn

I sit and stare
And begin to smile
As then I start to yawn

Sleepily I lay
Upon a could
That's floating up in the sky

I twist and turn
At my fading vision
My dream begins to die

Again I awake
Amongst the clouds
To the sounds of noisy grunts

To my alarm
I'm standing on
The shoulders of giants


Better to die, and sleep
The never-waking sleep, than linger on
And dare to live when the souls life is gone.
