[intro]

[whispered]
I'm a dreamer, I let my mind wander.
I imagine how the world could be.
A wish fulfilled in my mind's eye.
I live there for a time before life pulls me away.

[Verse]
My dreams became nightmares.
They came unbidden, like the tide.
I couldn't discern reality.
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide.


[Bridge][spoken-word]
**There is a place between waking and dreaming, where reality and imagination blur.
That is where you need to look. That is the lens through which you can See. Find that place between awake and asleep.**

[chorus]
Breathe in, breathe out
The breath is life.
The telling of creation
flows in one great cosmic breath.

[Verse]
Break the veil between
imagination and the happening.
Aim your lens, let it through
Truth will find its way to you

[Interlude]
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-oooooooh

[Bridge][spoken-word]
**And I saw it as a tilting of the world, the light both too bright and too dim, roiling at the edges of shadows there in the vision place.**

[Verse] [backing singers]
Break the veil between (Breathe in)
imagination and the happening (Breathe out)
Aim your lens, let it through (Breathe in)
Truth will find its way to you. (Breathe out)

[End]
