Yeah Dream of WAKING!! This song seriously rules though. SO whats it about....hmm well its sorta obvious what its about I THINK heheh im probably wrong. well it seems like its just about wanting to wake up from a really bad nightmare, so he's 'dreaming of waking up' and he is just going through all the strange, panicking, bad feelings you have in a nightmare. You can see this in the very last line "To cry, I try, to break the static keeping me here in between." which means he trys to break the 'static' that is keeping him asleep so that he wakes up. Another thing is that Davey calls the nightmare "somewhere between... between a dream and motionless reality". I reckon this is pointing out that a nightmare is between a beautiful dream and horrible, cruel reality. It is sort of a mid point - a nightmare isnt as nice as a dream, but it isnt is bad as reality. THERE we go I have deciphered yet another song! Actually that was my first ;-) cool. Anyway AFI rule, Black Sails in the Sunset is the best album with the best lyrics. This song isnt on any CD albums, its on the vinyl Art of Drowning which I will never be able to god damn find. Thank god I heard it on a free CD with a magazine.
