///*****/// [Intro] Beyond the sleeping world lies a book-lined tower overlooking a peaceful valley, Where silence wears the color of a bruise. One spark survives beneath the weight of years, One human voice refuses to be used. [Verse 1] I carried doubt like water in a helmet, I carried blame like gravel in my boots. The climb exposed the weakness of my anger, Then showed me where a deeper courage roots. Not every battle asks a blade for payment, Not every victory needs a royal name. Sometimes the bravest act is standing open, And guarding one uncelebrated flame. [Pre-Chorus] Every shadow has a border, Every tyrant has an hour. When the heart rejects the order, Even dust remembers power. [Chorus] I am a dreamer with a loaded heart! Let the hammering heavens hear our cry. I am a dreamer with a loaded heart! We were born to stand, not wait to die. Through the smoke, through the wound, through the night that calls us liars, We will carry living iron, we will carry living fires. I am a dreamer with a loaded heart! Raise the truth until it cuts across the sky. [Verse 2] They promised peace, but sent us a returning shadow that only his oldest mistake can defeat. They dressed the oldest hunger up as law. I watched the faithful trade away their names, Then in the ruin I uncovered a crystal key warm with remembered voices; No jeweled relic, only proof made bright. It held the warmth of everyone who fell, And showed my empty hands what they must fight. [Chorus] I am a dreamer with a loaded heart! We were born to stand, not wait to die. Through the smoke and through the wound, carry the living fire. I am a dreamer with a loaded heart! Raise the truth across the sky. [Bridge] If I return alone, remember this: I will spend my final magic so another generation may dream. No monument can breathe for those it buries, No sacred word can make a falsehood clean. The future is not granted by the mighty; It starts wherever ordinary hearts convene. [Guitar Solo - a multi-stage guitar solo moving from clean modal melody to sustained electric lines and a brief fleet climax] [Rhythm guitars hold the central motif while bass and drums widen the battlefield.] [Verse 3] This is the tale of an aging magician deciding whether to use forbidden power one last time. The weak became a wall around each other, The lost became a road across the rain. We learned that hope is neither soft nor silent, It bites the hand that feeds the world despair. It lifts the fallen standard from the gutter, And makes a kingdom out of those who care. [Final Chorus] I am a dreamer with a loaded heart! Let the last horizon answer to our cry. I am a dreamer with a loaded heart! We have learned the dark can bleed and empires die. Through the smoke, through the wound, through the years that tried to break us, We are neither owned nor ended; every scar will remake us. I am a dreamer with a loaded heart! Raise the truth until it cuts across the sky.
