My Dreams
Yael Naпm and David Donatien Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You want it all for you
Inside you know you do
And i've been locked inside
But help me understand
You said you want my hand
You wanted to be friends
But now i understand you only wanted my dreams
You taught me how to pray
You said that i will pay
You wanted me to stay
And i'm still blind to see
How you are playing with my fears
That you create my tears
But only after years
It’s now i understand you only wanted my dreams
If somehow i should die
Will you ever wonder why
I am real but you can't feel
All that you erase and kill
I will fly away from here
All you took will disappear
Was it my dream ?
You said you want my land
Now i cannot pretend
It's time for me to stand
As hard as it can be
I'm ready now to see
I'm going to be free
’Cause now i understand you only wanted my dreams
But now i understand you only wanted my dreams
You said you want my hand
Now I cannot pretend
It's time for me to stand
As hard as it can be
I'm ready now to see
I'm going to be free
Free
The lyrics of Yael Naпm and David Donatien's song titled "My Dreams" are quite heartbreaking and express the pain of being used and manipulated by someone who only wanted to take advantage of one's dreams and aspirations. The first stanza talks about how the person has been locked inside and is trying to understand the intentions of the other person who wanted their hand but only to take away their dreams. The second stanza talks about how the person who taught them how to pray and wanted them to stay is playing with their fears and creating tears for them. The singer is still blinded and cannot see the manipulations of the other person.
The third stanza talks about if they die, will the other person wonder why they died? The singer feels that they are real but the other person cannot feel them, and they erase their dreams and kill their hope. The last stanza talks about how the singer is ready to be free from the clutches of the other person who only wanted their dreams. They are ready to stand and see the truth, and they are going to be free.
Overall, the song is a powerful expression of how being used and manipulated by someone who only wanted to take advantage of one's dreams and aspirations can be a painful experience.

You'll never say it's true
You'll never confess it's true
You want it all for you
You desire everything for yourself
Inside you know you do
Internally you are aware that you do
And i've been locked inside
And I have been trapped
But help me understand
But assist me in comprehending
You said you want my hand
You mentioned that you want my company
You wanted to be friends
You had expressed the desire to be friends
But now i understand you only wanted my dreams
But now I comprehend that you solely desired my dreams
You taught me how to pray
You instructed me on how to pray
You said that i will pay
You proclaimed that I will pay the consequences
You wanted me to stay
You wished for me to remain
And i'm still blind to see
And I am still oblivious to the truth
How you are playing with my fears
How you are manipulating my anxieties
That you create my tears
That you generate my tears
But only after years
But only after an extended period
It’s now i understand you only wanted my dreams
It's only now I realize that you solely desired my dreams
If somehow i should die
If by any chance I pass away
Will you ever wonder why
Will you ever question why
I am real but you can't feel
I exist, but you cannot feel me
All that you erase and kill
Everything that you eliminate and destroy
I will fly away from here
I will depart from here
All you took will disappear
All that you took will vanish
Was it my dream ?
Was it my dream that you took?
You said you want my land
You stated that you want what I possess
Now i cannot pretend
Now I can no longer pretend
It's time for me to stand
It's time for me to take action
As hard as it can be
As difficult as it may seem
I'm ready now to see
I am now prepared to perceive
I'm going to be free
I am going to be liberated
’Cause now i understand you only wanted my dreams
Because now I comprehend that you solely desired my dreams

"My Dreams"
You’ll never say it’s true
You want it all for you
Inside you know you do
And I’ve been locked inside
But help me (to) understand
You said you want my hand
You wanted to be friends
But now I understand
You only wanted my dreams
But now I understand
You only wanted my dreams
For yourself... for yourself
You taught me how to pray
You said that it will pay
You wanted me to stay
And I’m still blind to see
How you are playing with my fears
That you create my tears
But only after years
It’s now I understand
You only wanted my dreams
But now I understand
You only wanted my dreams
If somehow, I should die
Will you ever wonder why?
I am real but you can’t feel
All that you erase and kill
I will fly away from here
All you took will disappear
Was it my dream?
You said you want my land
Now I cannot pretend
It’s time for me to stand
As hard as it can be
I’m ready now to see
I’m going to be free
Cause now I understand
You only wanted my dreams
But now I understand
You only wanted my dreams
You said you want my hand
Now, I cannot pretend
It’s time for me to stand
As hard as it can be
I’m ready now to see
I’m going to be free
