Dream Inside a Dream
Switzerland 2019
This song was written in Switzerland when I was touring there by train at the end of 2019. The song came from a place of feeling so dedicated to asking life to show me the TRUTH of things, even if it's uncomfortable. It sings of my longing to pierce through the layers of illusion that keep me trapped in mind games, to feel what it is to be in direct presence with this life, to rest in the wide open space that lies beyond the chatter of the mind.
And all I want to see is truth
And all I want to hear is truth
And all I want to speak is truth
And all I want to know is truth
When this dream inside a dream, fades away so I can see
That I was never me and I was always connected to everything that is
And these illusions of the mind, they fade away so I can find
The truth of who I really am inside
What lies behind the chatter of the mind?
A wide open space where I can truly meet my life
And what lies below the come and the go?
A place I can rest inside the stillness of the flow
What lies behind the chatter of the mind?
A wide open space where I can truly meet my life
And what lies below the come and the go?
A place I can rest inside the stillness of the flow
Repeat all
And all I want to see is truth
And all I want to hear is truth
And all I want to speak is truth
And all I want to know is truth
