I Have A Dream
Eric and the Magic Lamps Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In a cardboard box on the floor
Thinking of how life is such a mistake for me
And after we'll lie
Just to hide our mistakes
Think about all the night
The look in my eye
Wake up it's the light that the engine makes
Lay down underneath of the aching stairs
So that I can find you
I have none
I have none
I have none but it feels like so much
Wake up it's the light that the engine makes
When you leave it to go
Lay down underneath of the aching stairs
So that I can find you
I have none
I have none
I have none but it feels like so much
In "I Have a Dream," Eric and the Magic Lamps ponder what it would feel like to be truly free. The lyrics express a desire for self-determination and control over one's life. The singer wonders if they will ever know how it feels to be free, and dreams of having a life that they own. They implore the listener to try to understand their story and see them for who they are, to take the time to listen to their song.
The song is about the desire for love and connection, and the frustration of feeling unseen and unheard. The singer has been searching for something they may never find, but they refuse to give up. They believe that nothing should stop them from trying. The repetition of the chorus highlights the importance of being seen and understood, and the power of music to connect people.
Overall, "I Have a Dream" is a heartfelt ballad that speaks to the universal human desire for freedom, love, and understanding. The lyrics are simple but powerful, and the melody is hauntingly beautiful.

Regardless of how challenging it may be.
No matter if the tears fall

Nothing should stop us from trying
Giving up should never be an option.

u will see the red ones he take from the top, the blue ones from the bottom.
after it. i have no fucking idea. i think he is a wizard.

This entire trick is so incredible to watch. So many mind blowing things happened but there’s just something about the beginning when he made those 2 rectangles just pop into their places that really blew my mind and sucked me into this one
