Harlequin Dream
Boy & Bear Lyrics

And I've been worried for a while now
I have been concerned for some time

Cos' you don't look the same
Because you have changed in a noticeable way

How the devil takes his toll
The negative effects of difficult experiences

When you go walking through that flame
When you go through a difficult period

And I'm not saying it's been easy
It has not been a smooth journey

But you know all too well
But you are aware and understand

That you cannot replace the space
The unique place you once held cannot be replaced

Your spirit had once held
The essence of who you used to be

So we run through the jungle
We navigate through life's challenges

And I can feel the rhythm of war
The intensity of the struggle

You see I'm fighting
I am putting up a fight

But I just can't fight anymore
But I have reached my limit

I'm in awe
I am overwhelmed

So we'll give ourselves to the Harlequin Dream
We will surrender to our desires and ambitions

Giving over all our friends and our family
Even if it means sacrificing those closest to us

And we'll say goodbye to the world that we love
We will let go of what we hold dear

For I can no longer deny my blood
Because it is who I am

And now you're taking on a kingdom
You are taking control

I'm ravenous for more
I crave even greater success

An appetite so beautiful
A desire so alluring

But vacant to it's core
But ultimately unsatisfying

I've been living on my instincts
I have been following my natural impulses

So you better run
So you better be prepared to face me

You better keep moving along
You better keep progressing

For it seems I have been wondering
Because I have been lost and wandering

Far too long
For an extended period of time
