Analysis of In My Dreams
You're never in my past since I sense your core in dreams
You're never in my past since I sense primary schemes
You're never laid to rest since I sense your spirit form
You're never laid to rest since I sense phantasmal swarm
You're never far behind since I sense your shadow near
You're never far behind since I sense silhouette sphere
You're never wiped away since I sense your fall with rains
You're never wiped away since I sense unending chains
You're never lost to mind since I sense your touch at hand
You're never lost to mind since I sense conduction band
You're never off the map since I sense you at each bend
You're never off the map since I sense infinite friend
