Lyric discussion by Jean-vic 

Cover art for Illusion & Dream lyrics by Poets Of The Fall

IMO, this songis being sung to people in general that see the world as a good place. They are always positive about how the world is, and this annoys the singer. They fail to see how the world really is, and unquestioningly follow their illusions and dreams. POTF are just telling these fools that the world isn't all sunshine and roses, and that it has terrible things on its surface.
