Fantasia
Dispersia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Looking down through the shroud of clouds
I watch the passing tide of my mind
Triumphant being of the skies
The colorless light is stealing both my eyes

Hush baby hush I am holding you tight
Don't be afraid because they won't steal the night
Hush baby hush I am here by your side
All life can now drown in coloured light


Carried away
By the light of day
The beauty of the sky
The simple sign of life.

Carried away by the beautiful shimmer of the light
Spinning away moving from side to side




Laughing in the sorrow of time
Burning away out of the sky the spirit of my glorious life

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Dispersia's "Fantasia" depict the experience of an individual who is observing the world from a different perspective. The opening lines, "Looking down through the shroud of clouds, I watch the passing tide of my mind," suggest that the singer is looking at the world from a higher vantage point, almost as if they are floating above the clouds. They are also meditating on their thoughts, allowing them to pass by like the tides of the ocean.


The second line, "Triumphant being of the skies, the colorless light is stealing both my eyes," further emphasizes the feeling of being above the world, as the singer describes themselves as a triumphant being of the skies. The mention of colorless light stealing their eyes could be interpreted as them being so high up that all they can see is white light.


The chorus, "Hush baby hush I am holding you tight, don't be afraid because they won't steal the night, hush baby hush I am here by your side, all life can now drown in colored light," could suggest that the singer is comforting someone who is afraid of the world around them. They reassure this person that they won't be taken by the darkness or negative aspects of life, and that they are there to support them. The line "all life can now drown in coloured light" hints that the singer believes there is beauty in the world that can make all the gloomy aspects fade away.


In the second verse, "Carried away by the light of day, the beauty of the sky, the simple sign of life. Carried away by the beautiful shimmer of the light, spinning away moving from side to side, laughing in the sorrow of time," the singer further emphasizes the idea of being carried away by the beauty of the world, specifically the sky. The mention of the "simple sign of life" could suggest that the singer finds contentment in the little things in life. The line "laughing in the sorrow of time" is interesting, as it suggests the singer is finding joy in difficult circumstances, an admirable trait.


Overall, "Fantasia" seems to be a song about finding beauty in the world even when it seems dark, and the importance of having someone by your side to support you through tough times.


Line by Line Meaning

Looking down through the shroud of clouds
Observing from above as I peer through the opaque veil of clouds


I watch the passing tide of my mind
I am conscious of my own thoughts as they ebb and flow like the tide


Triumphant being of the skies
An exultant entity soaring through the heavens


The colorless light is stealing both my eyes
The absence of hue in the light impairs my vision


Hush baby hush I am holding you tight
Quiet now, dear one, I have a secure grasp on you


Don't be afraid because they won't steal the night
Rest assured, they will not snatch away the night


Hush baby hush I am here by your side
Be still, my love, for I am present and vigilant


All life can now drown in coloured light
Every living thing may now be inundated with rainbow radiance


Carried away
Trans fixed, entranced


By the light of day
By the illumination brought by sunshine


The beauty of the sky
The splendour of the aerial expanse


The simple sign of life.
A basic clue to the existence of life


Carried away by the beautiful shimmer of the light
Transported by the lovely gleaming of the illumination


Spinning away moving from side to side
Spinning and turning, swaying to and fro


Laughing in the sorrow of time
Amusing oneself within the melancholy of temporal existence


Burning away out of the sky the spirit of my glorious life
Rapidly vanishing from sight, the essence of my grand existence is fading away
