Getting out of Dreamland
Awakening Beyond Dreamland: Silver Reeds' Journey of Transformation
Lyrics
Silver light comes through the trees at night
Silver light penetrates through the trees during nighttime.
Ripples turn to liquid glass in moonlight
Small waves transform into a smooth, reflective surface resembling glass due to the moon's light.
This is where the good go when they die
This is a place where morally good individuals go after death.
Good and evil, and the sky is neither bright or dark now, what am I?
The concept of morality (good and evil) and the sky's appearance, neither entirely bright nor dark, provoke self-reflection about identity.
Up above the canopy's a room
Above the treetops is an area resembling a room.
The ceiling of it's open to the moon
The ceiling of this 'room' is open, exposing it to the moon's light.
You're headed there without me very soon
The listener or someone significant is anticipated to depart for this place soon, possibly hinting at death.
The sky is fading black to blue
The sky's color is transitioning from black to blue, signaling the onset of a new day.
The day is dawning, tell me, where are you
A question directed at the listener about their current whereabouts in this changing scenario.
Now I'm getting out of dreamland
The singer is departing from a dreamlike state or an illusory world.
Two feet on the ground
A determination to be firmly grounded in reality.
I'm getting out of dreamland
Reiterating the departure from a dreamlike state or illusions.
Do you still want me around?
An inquiry about whether the listener desires the singer's continued presence.
Do you still want me around?
-Do you still want me around?
-Do you still want me to hide out in this broken head
An appeal to be accepted and not confined to one's troubled thoughts.
And use your mouth to speak instead
Expressing a desire to communicate directly instead of hiding behind mental distress.
Dance until my feet are broken
A metaphorical willingness to dance until physically and mentally exhausted.
And my mind is cracking open
An indication of reaching a breaking point mentally and emotionally.
I cannot stay
An inability to stay due to undisclosed reasons.
For reasons I can't share today
Reasons for departure are unspecified but significant enough to withhold at present.
I'd rather be rooted in the ground
A preference for being firmly grounded rather than in a dreamlike state.
And feel the sound of thunder
A desire to experience the raw power and sensation of thunder.
And all the reasons are rolling into one
Multiple reasons for departure converging into one decisive point.
One single silent episode to run
A singular, significant event about to unfold quietly.
I've never been more certain that I'm done
A resolute decision that the singer has reached their limit or conclusion.
Gonna take the pictures out the frames
Intention to remove reminders of the past and move on.
Close the books and put them all away
A closure of past chapters and memories.
Now I'm getting out of dreamland
Reiteration of departing from a dreamlike state or illusions.
Two feet on the ground
A reaffirmation of being grounded in reality.
I'm getting out of dreamland
Reiterating the departure from a dreamlike state and questioning the listener's willingness to retain the relationship.
Do you still want me around?
A final inquiry about the listener's desire for the singer's presence.
