Lyrics
Verse 1:
Why is it that the most dazzling red sunset still somehow feels incomplete?
And why does a blanketed brilliant white snowscape get muddied under my feet?
Why does the majesty purple of mountains fade the closer you get,
And a dip in the paradise blue of the islands still leaves you nothing but wet?
Chorus 1:
It?s all just a reflection
An illusion littered with imperfections
A dim partial view of a place from my dreams
That seems more real than reality.
Verse 2:
Why do the truest words that I can speak fall so short of the truth that I feel?
And why does the best that this world has to offer fall so short of the ideal?
[repeat chorus 1]
Bridge:
One day I?ll exit this fallen place and I?ll
See the way to enter into the gate
That day I?ll finally get a taste of the
Kind of life that will satisfy this longing in my soul?
Chorus 2:
I?ll see the source of all these reflections
Face to face with the blueprint of utter perfection
A crystal clear view of that place from my dreams
That seems more real than reality
Seems more real than reality
It will be more real than reality.
