Shai Hulud - Let Us At Last Praise The Colonizers Of Dreams lyrics

rate me

without pretension.

with a sweet chill down my spine...

for a time the clouds lift, and what i have resigned to thinking barren

does bear fruit.

if i am to die - if i must die,

i must inspire while i live,

alongside the dreamers.

let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams

i surrender all. all i have to give:

those who have survived lifes thorns

and provided escape.

to those, whose creations live forever.

to those that wrote the words,

though my knees become weak,

i will cause my foot another step.

to carry the task.

and to those that understood

there is a need for faith

and a need for hope

let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams

as with the brightest and the wisest,

i know the need of faith, hope, and dreams.

i burn for vision and inspiration, for this is life.

if perchance i am dreaming,

please, let me sleep.

to spend my time in great atlantis,

in search of camelot.

i drink from the grail, and war with the immortals,

rather than sulk in the ruins of a fallen sky castle.

amidst the remnants of once

mighty colossus,

comes this call:

where are the builders?

i clearly see the slayers, and the hope they destroy.

i clearly see the thieves, and the wonders they deprive the inspired.

where are the builders?

if i am to die - if i must die,

i must inspire while i live,

alongside the dreamers.
