Saint Ophelia - Dreamer of Dreams Lyrics

Hey there my friend, I know your face
I recognize you
I see who you are
You're a dreamer of dreams
A light from a far distant place

Tell me, what is illusion, and what is real?
Beyond the matrix of societal norms, paying your mortgage, and filling out forms, What's the deal?

Dreamer of dreams, work your hands into the clay
Forge us a trail where there is none today
Set your arrow to bow and hunt your shadows in the dark
Close your eyes to hit the mark

My understanding based on what I can see
Is that conceptualization
And rational thought
Emotions and feelings
A tug of war is being fought
Inside of me

I write my "rude Q&A"
To broaden my stance
I build a platform to stand on
To make my case
I'm wielding language
I'm wearing my best face
For my ghost of a chance

Dreamer of dreams, work your hands into the clay
Forge us a trail where there is none today
Set your arrow to bow and hunt your shadows in the dark
Close your eyes to hit the mark

Close your eyes
