"Let Us At Last Praise The Colonizers Of Dreams" lyrics

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 give:

To those who survived life's thorns
And provided escape
To those, whos 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 visions 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
