They formed around 2008 and have released two EPs, Hope and Sails Set, Armada - EP, and one album, Heartbound. Hope was picked up by Australian's biggest hardcore label, Boomtown Records, and the band was invited to play on the Australian leg of the 2010 Take Action Tour alongside Attack Attack! and Pierce the Veil. Since then they have toured Australia with acts such as Avenged Sevenfold and internationally with acts such as Attack Attack!, The Ghost Inside and Sleeping With Sirens. Their debut album Heartbound was released in August 2011 through UNFD (AU, NZ), Rise Records (US, UK, EU), and Triple Vision Entertainment (JP). The first single released from the album was Downfall, through their official website and other digital distributors.
With the news that Dream On Dreamer would be playing Soundwave 2012, the band went into recording at the guitarist Callan's studio. The band then released a Vanessa Carlton cover of A Thousand Miles especially for the tour.
The band released the single, Midnight Thoughts, for the second US tour in April 2012. A DVD is currently in the works with photographer/filmaker Sam Link set for an August release. Another project called "Zodiac" is rumoured to be in the works.
A Path Of Its Own
Dream On Dreamer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Expressing me being left behind
All I ever wanted,
Has opened its eyes
[Repeat: x2]
On my own for so many years
Been trapped, been chased, been fighting fears
I choose to follow my dreams instead
So who the fuck do you think you are?
I won't float away, won't let this grief abandon me
Giving up our hearts, for the life we dedicate
[Repeat: x2]
On my own for so many years
Been trapped, been chased, been fighting fears
I've seen the dead with its fake blushed smile ahead
I choose to follow my dreams instead
I won't float away, won't let this grief abandon me
Giving up our hearts, for the life we dedicate
The lyrics to Dream On Dreamer's song A Path Of Its Own are about the struggles of pursuing one's own dreams and aspirations, despite the obstacles and naysayers one may encounter. The singer is reflecting on their journey of self-discovery and how they have fought against fear and doubt to follow their heart. They have endured being left behind and feeling trapped, but they refuse to give up on their dreams. They reject the notion of conforming to societal expectations and instead choose to take their own path, even if it means facing challenges and uncertainty.
The line "I've seen the dead with its fake blushed smile ahead" is a powerful metaphor for the allure of giving in to societal pressures and living a life that is not true to oneself. The singer acknowledges that this option may seem enticing, but they ultimately choose to resist this illusion and pursue their own path.
The repeated line "I won't float away, won't let this grief abandon me" signifies the singer's determination to stay grounded and resilient in the face of adversity. They are unwilling to let their sadness or doubts consume them and will keep pushing forward towards their dreams.
