Sleeping Beauty

Look at her - she's a sleeping beauty
In her concrete castle tower
With the sound of her faint heartbeat
Her wide-open eyelids flutter
Through the solid vault of ceiling
Her stare pierces time and substance
But she's locked inside her body
So unsheltered in her blindness
As the time flies by, she's static
In the streams of lights around her
And the glass walls of her chamber
Keep her deep in dreamful slumber
No prince comes to break the dark spell
Though she sees his image clearly
He is crying from his own shell
But his voice is weak and bleary
Through the solid wall around her
If she woke up for a moment
She could notice him beyound it,
Sharing even dreamlike ailment

1.
Watch the fire dance around,
Burning cities to the ground.
Bits of ash stick to your skin -
Now forget what you have been.
2.
Watch the rain fall all around,
Washing ashes from the ground.
Let the water sooth your skin -
Now you're free of every sin.
3.
Watch the wind caress the grass.
Is there hope for all of us?
On the ruins of human strife
Man of the Future comes to life.
Ref.:
Let the flames whipe out your past,
Human essence changes so fast.
Let your sins go with the rain,
New man's always born in pain.
