Lyrics for Silent Lucidity as interpreted by Boonechic_21

Silent Lucidity Lyrics
Hush now don't you cry
Wipe away the teardrop from your eye
You're lying safe in bed
It was all a bad dream spinning in your head
Your mind tricked you to feel the pain
Of someone close to you leaving the game of life
So 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 night
Relax child, you were there
But only didn't realize and you were scared
It's a place where you will learn
To face your fears retrace the years
And ride the whims of your mind
Commanding in another world
Suddenly you hear and see
This magic new dimension
I-will be watching over you
I-I'm gonna help you see it though
I-will protect you in the night
I-I'm smiling next to you in silent lucidity

If you open your mind for me
You won't rely on open eyes to see
The walls you build within come tumbling down
And a new world will begin
Living twice at once you learn
You're safe from pain in the dream domain
A soul set free to fly
A 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) I'm gonna help you see it though
(I) will protect you in the night
(I) I'm smiling next to you

apparently vh1 called this song one of the worst metal songs of all time. just 'cause the song was performed by a metal group doesn't mean it's metal, and besides it's so lovely and majestic.

Esenthiel's right. This song is entirely about experiencing a lucid dream. All the lyrics refer to it. In short, lucid dreaming is when you realize, within your own dream, that you are dreaming. When that happens, you can literally take control of your own dream and do with it what you want. I've experienced a few of these myself, although I don't study it as much as most people. It's quite an interesting experience. Within a dream, you can literally do whatever you want. "The walls you built within come tumbling down and a new world will begin."

Agreed this song is one of the best. It was the first song/band that I heard an orchestra played behind a Rock band. I was touched, and with this song, I'm encouraged that life is a beautiful thing.

This song's about lucid dreaming (when you are know you are dreaming, and thus if you don't wake yourself up you can control your dream).

We may lose our loved ones to Death, but they will always be right next to us in Spirit.

I first heard this song sung by a girl at a karaoke bar. Someone whispered to me while she was singing, "She's got AIDS, yknow." The song meant even more to me then.

Incredible.

many people might say this song is about dreams, which i guess is correct.

to me, this song is about embracing death. not so much as in a BOC "Don't Fear The Reaper" kind of way.

it's about crossing over. i always regarded death more as just a prolonged sleep, the events of your life flickering like a film strip before your eyes.

this song could even be regarded as a message, from those who have gone before us, that there is nothing to fear, no pain. and that they are waiting on the other side to guide us.

I used to have a recurring nightmare about death. I'd wake up every night and start crying. I had abusive parents and used to hide behind my bedroom door at night. My family thought very little of me. I became what they saw in me. By doing so, I became a master of illusion. A caring man with very special gifts let me know that I am never alone. He helped me to see that I can overcome this tragedy in my life, but I need to break down the walls I built within me and learn to trust him. Lucid dreams helped me to learn dream control and when I confront danger in my dreams I fly like a bird. He helped me to realize that my life dreams can become a reality. There is a message in the middle of the song where you here me crying out for help, my step-father's yelling "How dare you do that!", my mother states "Jack don't!", my father asks "What's that?" and my brother says "Don't be stupid!" My name is mentioned several times. This song is about my life.
