Queensrÿche - Silent Lucidity (traduzione in italiano)

Il singolo ha raggiunto la posizione numero 9 della Billboard Hot 100 ed è stato nominato come “Miglior canzone rock“ ai Grammy Awards del 1992. La canzone è stata interpretata come basata sul tema dei sogni lucidi, soprattutto grazie alle parole pronunciate a metà canzone che trattano della visualizzazione dei sogni. La canzone è stata registrata con un’orchestra che non è presente solo in sottofondo, ma è prominente nella seconda metà della sezione strumentale del brano. Lyrics (inglese) [Intro] Hush now, don’t you cry Wipe away the teardrop from your eye You’re lying safe in bed It was all a bad dream spinning (Spinning) In your head (Spinning, spinning, spinning) Your mind tricked you to feel the pain Of someone close to you leaving the game of life So here it is, another chance Wide awake, you face the day Your dream is over Or has it just begun? [Verse 1] There’s a place I like to hide A doorway that I run through in the night Relax child, you were there But only didn’t realize and you were scared It’s a place where you will learn To face your fears, retrace the years And ride the whims of your mind Commanding in another world Suddenly, you hear and see This magic new dimension [Chorus] I will be watching over you I am gonna help you see it through I will protect you in the night I am smiling next to you in silent lucidity [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] “Visualize your dream Record it in the present tense Put it into a permanent form If you persist in your efforts You can achieve dream control (Help me) Dream control How are we feeling today, better? Dream control (Help me) Dream control (Help me) Dream control (Help me) Dream control (Help me)“ [Verse 2] If you open your mind for me You won’t rely on open eyes to see The walls you built within come tumbling down And a new world will begin Living twice at once, you learn You’re safe from pain in the dream domain A soul set free to fly A round trip journey in your head, master of illusion Can you realize your dream’s alive? You can be the guide, but [Chorus] I will be watching over you I am gonna help you see it through I will protect you in the night I am smiling next to you Fonte:
