***Zanarkand...the land of endless lights, and endless nights (from FINAL FANTASY X)

In a land of perpetual lights and endless nights
are those who do not sleep, perhaps in fear of just what might

What just might be, if their eyes were closed
And in their sleep, they'd so dispose

Of forlorn woes, and sorrows. Discouraging words, and spiteful ways
And in their dreams...are only calm and placid days

They dare not sleep, for in their sleep are hopes and dreams
And they'd all come true, it sure would seem

So sleep dare not. Dream dare not as well
In fear of disappointment as they'd wake and dwell

On what could have been.
And should have been.

And then realize...
that it was all but just a reverie
That in their waking moments, what should have been
Is not neccesarily what so shall be

That life is harsh. And not as they had thought
And love is not as they had so once sought

So forth they go. With work-filled days. And work-filled nights
Not a hint of rest to put to test...

All that they have...dreamed.

But then...

Without sleep, the eyes are reddened. The body worn
The heart is tattered, the spirit torn

Without rest, to rebuild what has been broken
And recall forgotten hopes that should be woken

So to rest. To life...enjoy. And...sleep. Indeed.
And close their eyes. And dream...indeed

And to remember. Be reminded just once more
That dreams exist not just in fairytales and fabricated folklores

So may they not live in...
But only dream in...

Zanarkand...the land of perpetual lights, and endless nights

And IN Zanarkand...the land of perpetual lights, and endless nights
May they lay to slumber...all frets, and fears, and frights

And sleep a sleep of wonder.
And place their weary souls in like repose
To leave the chambers of hope wide open
And never their doors to close...

So whilst they sleep...
TO ZANARKAND...Away they'll go
With all their hopes and dreams...in full tow...
