Torn Between Two Worlds
Dreamchild Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To find the force to carry on,
We had the optimism, but time
Has shown us realism.
We remember, the green, the seas,
Blue skies.
All of it is now reduced to
Nothing,
Cosmic wind...
Innocent victims died in agony,
Murdered in the name of power
And greed!
We hold! The reins of tomorrow.
We try! Not to fall on sorrow.
We have! To be organised.
We will! Now open our eyes.
Bridges have been burned,
Between us, and our past.
Ultimate humans,
But how long will we last ?
We wear a crown of thorns,
Our cross is the unknown.
When will end our calvary ?
Will we find harmony ?
We'll search 'til our kingdom
Come.
Torn between two worlds !
One exists no more,
One is to explore,
Ohoh...
Torn between two worlds !
We cannot see their shores...
The madness ! Menaces us,
But it's too soon to fall into his
Darkness.
We won't do !The same error,
To let one deads us into the horror.
We have reached technological
Dreams,
But still we're searching for the
Peacful seeds.
If we find, a place to be,
Wisdom will prevail,
That's what we wish.
[pre chorus]
[chorus]
We are prisonners, of this infinite
Universe.
We must find our place,or
Disapear,without a trace.
At the gates, of new worlds,
We're under mutations,
We're torn between two worlds!!!
[chorus]
The first verse of Dreamchild's song "Torn Between Two Worlds" speaks of a sense of loss and disillusionment with the world. The singer acknowledges that they once had optimism and saw the beauty in the world, but time has shown them the harsh reality of life. They reference natural wonders such as the greenery and blue skies, but lament that it all seems like nothing now, reduced to a mere "dust of diamonds left in the cosmic wind." The verse then takes a dark turn as it references the innocent victims who have been killed in the name of power and greed. Despite all of this, the singer resolves to hold the reins of tomorrow, to not fall into sorrow, to be organized, and to open their eyes.
The second verse continues with biblical imagery as the singer references a "crown of thorns" and "calvary." They question when their suffering and uncertainty will end and if they will ever find harmony. The chorus then repeats the title phrase of being "torn between two worlds." The singer acknowledges that one world no longer exists while the other is still to be explored, and they cannot see the shores of either. The bridge speaks of the danger and madness that threatens them, but they are determined not to fall into that darkness. They reference humanity's accomplishment in reaching technological dreams but that they still search for peaceful solutions. The final chorus emphasizes their feeling of being prisoners in this infinite universe and that they are torn between two worlds, uncertain of their place.

One exists no more,
One that's past and gone, of which there's no trace.

While another new avenue of exploration beckons.

We cannot see their shores...
