Description
What is it about? Well… We all dream. Every once in a while we are aware of the intensity of a dream of a life we either want or don’t want. The sudden and normal abrupt ending of the dream causes us to ponder and wonder for a few seconds (or milliseconds) concerning the validity of the dream. Thus, the experience occurs, causing all the normal human natured reactions, questions, and wonder of philosophical capsules of time and space.
Lyrics
"Once There Was A Man" V1 Once there was a man, was once a man that ever could be. He woke up in a dream, and the things that he knew had disappeared from memory. Once there was a man, who dreamed of a life lived with dignity. A vision of hope, of truth, of love, of honor and humility Chorus: He looked towards the sky to find out why Only to find it wasn’t a dream. But where is the line between what we dream And what we believe is reality? V2 Once there was a time when all that was – ever could be I search and I pretend I laugh, I cry to escape reality Once there was a place where time and space (simply) ceased to be Where a man could dream of a life free from sorrow and tragedy (Chorus:) V3 Once there was a world with places still yet to be found The world reveals the dawn and beauty defines all visibility Once there was a space between what is and what could (possibly) be And in that (very) space lie the answers to (all of) life’s vast mysteries (Chorus:)
