Shai Hulud Let Us At Last Praise The Colonizers Of Dreams Lyrics

WITHOUT PRETENSION 
WITH A SWEET CHILL DOWN MY SPINE...

FOR A TIME THE CLOUDS LIFT
AND WHAT I HAVE RESIGNED TO THINKING BARREN
DOES BEAR FRUIT
             ~
IF I AM TO DIE - IF I MUST DIE
I MUST INSPIRE WHILE I LIVE
ALONGSIDE THE DREAMERS

LET US AT LAST PRAISE THE COLONIZERS OF DREAMS

I SURRENDER ALL, ALL I HAVE GIVE:

TO THOSE WHO SURVIVED LIFE'S THORNS
AND PROVIDED ESCAPE
TO THOSE, WHOSE CREATIONS WILL LIVE FOREVER
TO THOSE THAT WROTE THE WORDS
THOUGH MY KNESS BECOME WEAK
I WILL CAUSE MY FOOT ANOTHER STEP
TO CARRY THE TASK
AND TO THOSE THAT UNDERSTOOD

THERE IS A NEED FOR FAITH
AND A NEED FOR HOPE

LET US AT LAST PRAISE THE COLONIZERS OF DREAMS

AS WITH THE BRIGHTEST AND THE WISEST
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/s/shai-hulud-lyrics/let-us-at-last-praise-the-colonizers-of-dreams-lyrics.html ]
I KNOW THE NEED OF
FAITH
HOPE
AND
DREAMS

I BURN FOR VISION AND INSPIRATION, FOR THIS IS LIFE

IF PERCHANCE I AM DREAMING
PLEASE, LET ME SLEEP

TO SPEND MY TIME IN GREAT ATLANTIS
IN SEARCH OF CAMELOT
I DRINK FROM THE GRAIL, AND WAR WITH THE IMMORTALS
RATHER THAN SULK IN THE RUINS OF A FALLEN SKY CASTLE
             ~
AMIDST THE REMNANTS OF ONCE
MIGHTY COLOSSUS,
COME THIS CALL
WHERE ARE THE BUILDERS?

I CLEARLY SEE THE SLAYERS, AND THE HOPE THEY DESTROY
I CLEARLY SEE THE THEIVES, 
AND THE WONDERS THEY DEPRIVE THE INSPIRED 

WHERE ARE THE BUILDERS?
             ~
IF I AM TO DIE - IF I MUST DIE
I MUST INSPIRE WHILE I LIVE
ALONGSIDE THE DREAMERS
