about

This song was written as part of the original 2005 Calendar sessions. It's a tale of entering your late 20's and the struggle between dreaming and believing. A dream is not a dream until you believe it so hang onto it and it will bear fruit.

lyrics

I look through my collection of tears, reflecting 27 years
Some of them were shining, some were way too frightening to disturb
Revealing in the way they moved
Revealing in the space they consumed
Revealing in the secrets they held
Revealing how I view myself

The race is on between the dreamers and believers
The race is on between dreaming and believing
The race is on between the dreamers and believers
The race is on between dreaming and believing
The dreamers almost gone

With a flicker of my eye I attempt to stop myself from crying
I gather all my shiny tears and take them to the shed at the bottom of my garden
Now the tears are running dry
And all the plans I nurtured are dying
There's a lack of fruition in there.
The vines are looking bare and scared

The race is on between the dreamers and believers
The race is on between dreaming and believing
A dream is just a dream until we believe it
A dream is just a dream until we believe it
The dreamers almost gone
