The Dream
Awakening Dreams: Unveiling the Deeper Meaning in Trentemøller's 'The Dream'
Lyrics
Thought over thought
Reflecting on different thoughts or ideas.
Why take the lead ?
Questioning the need to take a leading role.
I wont back off
Determined not to retreat or withdraw.
Why make a scene ?
Questioning the necessity of causing a disturbance.
Everyday we wait for a time
Anticipating or hoping for a particular moment.
When we wake up to the dream
Describing a desire to experience an idealized or imagined reality.
We wake up to the dream
Reiteration of waking up to an idealized dream or scenario.
My forgery
Suggesting personal deceit or imitation.
Fear of repeat
Expressing fear or anxiety about repetition.
Everyday we wait for a time
Similar to line 6, anticipating a specific moment.
We wake up to the dream
Reiterating the desire to awaken to an idealized dream.
We wake up to the dream
Emphasizing the repetition of waking up to this dream.
This is the time when you won't close your eyes
Describing a moment of heightened awareness or realization.
Cause you once thought your mom was really your dad
Recalling a past confusion or misunderstanding.
And you plead your own case the lawyer you had
Portraying a scenario of advocating for oneself, hindered by an unhelpful advocate.
Just stood in your way believing you mad
Feeling obstructed by someone who doubts your sanity.
I will not believe the once sought for place
Refusing to believe in a previously sought-after place or idea.
Is standing alone just saving face
Suggesting that standing alone is a facade to maintain appearances.
This is the time when you open your eyes
Encouragement to open one's eyes to reality or truth.
Truly believe in the words of the rhyme
Encouraging belief in the meaning or truth conveyed in a rhyme or message.
Everyday we wait for the time
Repetition of waiting for a specific time or moment.
We wake up to the dream
Continued desire to awaken to an idealized dream.
We wake up to the dream
Reiteration of the experience of waking up to this dream.
Everyday we wait for the time
Repeated anticipation of a particular time.
When we wake up to the dream
Anticipating waking up to the idealized dream.
We wake up to the dream
Reiteration of waking up to the idealized dream.
