I am a refugee from the dreamworld
In this new home my wings don’t work
People here are suspicious of me
When I look at them, they look away

Artist: Cyril Rolando |
I am a refugee from the dreamworld
Everything here makes too much sense
There is so little mystery
That I’m afraid to fall in love

Artist: Andre Masson |

I am a refugee from the dreamworld
My old home has been blown to bits
People here use it for target practice
It only lives in my memory
 |
Artist: Joan Miro |
I am a refugee from the dreamworld
And I will never go home again
Home is a word that has no meaning here
My language has become extinct
 |
Artist: Paul Nash |
I am a refugee from the dreamworld
Maybe you are too
Tell me your story so I understand
Maybe we can build a new homeland

A veteran of NYC’s underground music scene, Mike Power played on the stages of such beloved lost venues as CBGB’s and Kenny’s Castaways, as well as stalwart surviving ones like Arlene’s Grocery and the Bitter End as singer/songwriter/bassist with Late Model Humans. In 2020, quarantining from the global pandemic he worked remotely with other artists to record a collection of new music called Observations, that infuses his punk roots with introspective acoustic pieces.
