The Dreamer and the Dreamed

From Distance Not Safety

The Dreamer and the Dreamed

Lyrics

I met a man with eyes like fire Said, "You've been sleeping deep." "The world you see is just a mirror Who's awake, and who's asleep?"

He showed me how to stop the wind To chase the moon through shifting sand The whispers spoke in tongues of silence I reached out with a phantom hand

Oh, I'm the dreamer and the dreamed Caught inside this waking stream Through the cracks in time I'm falling Nothing is as real as it seems

Drink the night, the sky is breathing Colors twist, dissolve, ignite "Fear is just a rusted anchor," "Let it go and touch the light."

The eagle watches from the sky Its wings unfold in endless flight A warrior's path is walked in silence But I can hear the stars tonight

Oh, I'm the dreamer and the dreamed Caught inside this waking stream Through the cracks in time I'm falling Nothing is as real as it seems

I see beyond the dream of reason Step beyond the edge of light Through the fog of grand illusion I dissolve into the night

Oh, I'm the dreamer and the dreamed Caught inside this waking stream Through the cracks in time I'm falling Nothing is as real as it seems

For me there is only walking on paths that have heart
