Dreamer
Kim Feel Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

현실과 꿈 어디에
절망과 희망
그 어디쯤에서 서있는 나
나를 찾아서

시간의 흐름에
몸 던져 난
저 먼 바다를 헤엄쳐 가지만

그 어디 즈음에 즈음에 즈음에
좀 난 쉴 수 있을까

지키려고 지키기 위해
지켜내려 애써 멍청하게
웃으며

하늘 위로 가면 내 맘이 닿을까
얼마나 더 울어야
내 마음이 들릴까
변하지 않는 삶이라고 해도
그래 이렇게 난
그래 이렇게 난

두 눈을 감고 좀 더 크게 숨을 뱉어
그럼 아마 조금 더 (버틸 수 있을 거야)

조금만 더 가면
조금만 더 가면
나를 찾을거야

지키려고 지키기 위해
지켜내려 애써 멍청하게
웃으며

하늘 위로 가면 내 맘이 닿을까
얼마나 소리쳐야
내 마음이 들릴까
변하지 않는 삶이라고 해도
그래 이렇게 난 그래 이렇게 난

I'm a fool such a fool
I'm a dreamer
I'm a fool such a fool
I'm a dreamer
I'm a fool such a fool

하늘 위 내 맘이 닿을까
얼마나 소리쳐야 내 맘이 들릴까
변하지 않는 삶이라고 해도
그래 이렇게 난
그래 이렇게 난

어디쯤 그 어디쯤에
언제쯤 또 언제쯤에

여전히 이 자리를 지켜
여전히 내 꿈을 넌

Overall Meaning

Kim Feel's song "Dreamer" explores the themes of reality and dreams, hope and despair, and the struggle of finding oneself in the midst of it all. The song opens with the question, "Where am I standing, between reality and dreams, hope and despair?" The singer is searching for himself amidst the flow of time, and even though he throws himself into the ocean of life, he still feels lost and wonders where he can take a break. The chorus repeats the questions he has been asking himself: "If I go up to the sky, will my heart reach it? How much more do I have to cry until my heart can hear it? Even if life doesn't change, this is how I am, a dreamer."

The second verse echoes the first as the singer continues to fight to protect, and cling on to his dream, often foolishly, while the bridge offers a momentary respite, urging the singer to close his eyes, take a deep breath and wait just a little bit longer to find himself. In the end, the chorus repeats itself, leaving us to wonder if the singer has found himself or if he is still lost in the endless cycle of life.

Overall, "Dreamer" is a song that speaks to anyone who has ever felt lost or stuck in the flow of time, but it also offers comfort in knowing that it's okay to be a dreamer and hold onto our hopes and dreams despite the challenges we face.
