Dreamer Boy

from Wide Eyes by Mono Green

/

about

After a few releases under his old artist name Monoply, he now continues with the new name Mono Green and kicks things off with his first single "Dreamer Boy", which will be part of his next EP, scheduled for September 2022. The theme of the song: growing up, expectations for the future and the fear of not being able to achieve them. In its lyrics, "Dreamer Boy" is a synonym for the childhood dreams that each of us had. It's a personal insight into the childhood of the German indie folk artist, who even back then always followed his dreams (to make music) and didn't let anything stop him. In his music video for the song, we get a very personal insight into his young emotional world through countless childhood images. The view into our own childhood is thereby inevitable.

lyrics

All I want is to run
Chasing my old shadows
Looking for the end of the road
I'm afraid of losing myself
I’m afraid to do something wrong
who can tell me what I am
and what I’ve become?

I’m a little dreamer boy
Waiting for the sunset
I’m a super hero boy
But I need you

All I want is to run
The concrete keeps me too slow
the footsteps are far too long
You put me out to pasture now
My legs are (just) giving way
And all that remains
Is too far away

I’m a little dreamer boy
Waiting for the sunset
I’m a super hero boy
But I need you

you empower me

I’m a little dreamer boy
Waiting for the sunset
I’m a super hero boy
But I need you
