Dreams from the Pit (Live)

Lately when I sleep perchance to dream
 I'm driven to the brink of madness
 By the things I've seen
 With perfect clarity I see
 From all the chapters of my life
 Faces staring at me
 Mocking me with laughter full of spite
 Falling deeper into this sea of doubt
 My lungs are filling up
 And it seems there's no way out
 When I wake and I reflect on what I've dreamt
 I can't shake the penetrating
 Stares that haunt me with contempt
 I've been judged and been found wanting
 By a jury of my fears
 And this feeling of such worthlessness
 Is tearing me to pieces
 Falling deeper into this sea of doubt
 My lungs are filling up
 And it seems there's no way out
 I never saw the thread as it was sewn
 Connecting all those faces I had known
 But somehow now they all respond in kind
 I'm struck down like a child
 And I'm afraid I'll lose my mind
 Please release me
 I don't want to feel this any more
 I'm terrified that this could be
 A glimpse of what's in store
 At Peter's Gate
 I can't shake it
 I've been judged and been found wanting
 And I'm worthless
 Falling deeper into this sea of doubt
 My lungs are filling up
 And it seems there's no way out
 Falling deeper into this pit of dreams
 The nightmares stay with me
 And I struggle not to scream
