My reply to alanjason Dated back in august 2011. Whether or not the intent was about lucid dreaming (Which I have been Lucid Dreaming for more than a decade), there is much more inspiration (meaning to breathe in) to this song. For most of us that have commented on it, it has a higher meaning, a more spiritual meaning. Maybe he wrote it about Lucid Dreaming, but might it be possible that his words were actually inspired (breathed into him) by a higher power. As being both a published poet and well as an accomplished artist I know that I have often wrote and painted pieces that were truly inspired (by its truest meaning) The words of this song have touched and comforted so many, so why would you want to discredit their feelings. Have you lost your wonderment and innocence that you feel the need to tread on others and the emotions that this work of art evokes? As for it is in the tile, I don't see it! "Silent" to be quiet, still "Lucidity" state of clarity, sanity... “Lucid” does not mean control nor does “Silent” mean dreaming. The term "Lucid Dreaming" means a coherent dream, many people have learned to control the Lucid Dream, but ultimately Lucid Dreaming is knowing within your dream that you are dreaming, therefore "dream control" is not a synonym for Lucid Dreaming. But I do give you credit for hearing and relaying the interview and voicing your opinion and if that is all this song means to you will then enjoy the song just for what you feel about it. I though choose to let this masterpiece envelop me and wrap me in my emotions. I mean no offense in my reply to you. |

This song is absolutely a classic. The song is sultry, mesmerizing, soothing and spiritual...The Great songs, I mean the really Great songs in all of history have one thing in common...They evoke emotion. This song is no exception. It is both complex and simplistic. It is a multiplex of meanings as well as emotions, as evidenced by the diverse comments from a variety of individuals. The most obvious meaning of course, is the lucid dream (consciously controlled dream) But I believe this is much more than that, (whether intended or not). For some it is accepting death, watching a child sleeping, coming to terms with our own mortality or breaking down walls for personal growth. This song has definitely evoked emotion. I have had many fantasy while listening to this song. Thoughts of a love lost with a hope of rebirth, being comforted by my spouse, knowing the heavenly father or seeing clarity within my sons eyes (the eyes are the silent souls that can speak and penetrate us and others to the deepest core of our own being, our own existence) I have had changing experiences throughout my life and can find different meanings within this song depending where I am within my life (thoughts of past, present and future) The song is like a cloud, it is so often at just a glance only a cloud, but then when we let the mind wander and search we can find the beauty and forms that a cloud may take and to our wonderment we see intricacies and forms that become much more than the cloud itself (we now see through child's eyes). How wonderful to have a song composed within my life that so resembles art that it makes me weep, smile and yes stay in quiet clarity or best said in Silent Lucidity. |
