This is a song I love but don’t listen to often enough. Neither can I name another song from this band although, I’m sure they’re created many over the years. I’m not even sure how to pronounce Queensryche but, it doesn’t matter! 🙂
Read on for the lyrics:
Hush now don’t you cry
Wipe away the teardrop from your eyeYou’re lying safe in bed
It was all a bad dream
Spinning in your headYour mind tricked you to feel the pain
Of someone close to you leaving the game
Of lifeSo here it is, another chance
Wide awake, you face the day
Your dream is over…Or has it just begun?
There’s a place I like to hide
A doorway that I run through in the nightRelax child, you were there
But only didn’t realize
And you were scaredIt’s a place where you will learn
To face your fears, retrace the years
And ride the whims of your mindCommanding in another world
Suddenly, you’ll hear and see
This magic new dimensionI
Will be watching over you
I am gonna help you see it through
I
Will protect you in the night
I am smiling next to youIn silent lucidity…
(Solo)
Spoken:
Visualize your dream (Yes)
Record it in the present tense (Don’t be scared)
Put it into a permanent form
If you persist in your efforts
You can achieve a dream control
(Control)
(How’re you doing today?) (Better?)Dream come true
Dream come true
Dream come trueHelp me…
If you open your mind for me
You won’t rely on open eyes to seeThe walls you built within
Come tumbling down
And a new world will beginLiving twice at once you learn
You’re safe from pain in the dream domain
A soul set free to flyA round trip journey in your head
Master of illusion, can you realize?
Your dream’s alive, you can be the guide but…I
Will be watching over you
I am gonna help you see it through
I
Will protect you in the night
I am smiling next to you…
