Poets Of The Fall – Illusion & Dream Lyrics 15 years ago
(Before i get started with my interpretatión about this song, i will say that my english isn't very good, because i'm from Argentina, so sorry if i don't make myself clear)
Quote 1:
"Look in my eyes I'll make you see
We're drifting aimlessly
Blind in a world of make believe"
I think what it means is that we cannot change the way it is, the way that government and authorities control us and we didn't realize how the truth is, we we're blind to this situation (control-concept similar to the movie "The Matrix". "Blind in a world of make believe").
Quote 2:
"It's whatever makes you see, makes you believe
And forget about the premonition you need to conceive
That the images they sell are illusion & dream
In other words dishonesty..."
This second quote talks about how they manipulate us, they shows us images than we can't demonstrate that are true, but the images are shocking so we buy it, and don't even ask if true or false.
Sorry i can't go on, my english sucks :S
Please comment my perspective about this song...
