Flyleaf - Set Apart This Dream Lyrics






Close your eyes little girl
You're a princess now
You own this world
Twirling in your twirly dress
You're the loveliest far above the rest

You build your castles in the skies
Stars reflecting off your eyes
And angels sing on silver clouds
And no one cries screams or shouts

Oh set apart this dream
Oh set apart this dream for me
Set apart this dream for me

Close your eyes pretty girl
'Cause its easier when you brace yourself
Set your thoughts on a world far off
Where we only cry from joy

Oh set apart this dream
Oh set apart this dream for me
Set apart this dream for me

Oh lovely and beautiful
Precious and priceless
You're so much more than you know
Heart of the purest gold
Pure clean and white as snow
Clothed in such splendor
Oh what a beauty for me

Set apart this dream
Set apart this dream

Oh set apart this dream (Set apart this dream)
Oh set apart this dream for me (Set apart this dream)
Set apart this dream for me

(You didn't come this far just to be plundered here
Tie up the ropes with pure strength
Sleep in this haven, the King holds your favor
With love much greater than you dreamed)

    Someone should edit this to anne with an e and make a music video! It's perfect for anne!

  7. J.... R....

    I was set APART cos my HEART is to SMART, It has ART and can DART all the FARTS before they START!!!

  8. N.... E....

    This was our world.

  9. G.... H....

    Well I think because of all the shallow thinking people that's why this one is less popular. But wow, this song was so well thought out and the lyrics are powerful! I get choked up and I think of someone special who this song reminds me of.

  10. L.... H....

    Is it wrong im a boy and this is my favorite band? ......

    L.... H....

    Low Horvath no

    L.... H....

    Roland Brown good

  11. w.... ....

    RIP Adonijah Christina

  12. b.... g....

    i love this FUCKING SOOOONG !!!!!

  13. p.... ....

    idk how they did it but the last ~20 seconds sound like the memory of a dream

  14. C.... B....

    Listening to this song as I get my first tattoo

  15. L.... ....

    whats the song at the end called

    L.... ....

    Unfortunately it's not a song of its own, it's literally just how this song ends. I do kinda wish they'd turned it into a song of its own, though.

    L.... ....

    Duskeyes believe it or not it's actually a bible verse :/ but I do wish they could've done a song about it :/

  16. N.... ....

    Heaven.

  17. s.... ....

    This has to be one of the most beautiful rock songs I have ever heard. I could listen to it all day.

    s.... ....

    Agreed :)

  18. J.... B....

    I love the part where she says "stars reflecting off your eyes" to me its like she saying have hope in ur life and u can be beautiful and don't let people judge u let urself be the judge of u not anybody else.

  19. p.... ....

    i like that little last part

    p.... ....

    its kinda cool

  20. B.... S....

    the last part throws me off. it seems a little out of place

    B.... S....

    it really doesn't

  21. K.... R....

    This song reminds me of Castle on a Cloud from Les Miserables

    K.... R....

    RIGHT!!

  22. J.... P....

    Wow this is my new favorite song by Flyleaf. it made me cry so it must be good!

  23. K.... ....

    This gives support to women, but I wonder why this kind of support is supposedly not needed for guys, like they're strong enough, they don't need emotional support like this.. And then we always assume the girl IS weak and needs this help... Wrong assumptions, I wish we could all accept the fact that we ALL need help sooner or later like this song displays.. I don't know why I ranted; don't hurt me ;-;

    K.... ....

    @Victoria Ferguson you're absolutely right, I also had no idea about Supernatural.

    K.... ....

    @Quox I believe this song is actually an open commentary she had to a young girl in her family. I'm not quite positive, but I know her character doesn't entail giving support to women above men.

    K.... ....

    +Joshua Granat Pretty sure i heard in a video they did that this song was written about her younger sister. Dont quote mo on that though

    K.... ....

    Quox This song was from Lacey's perspective to her younger sister, so that's why it's feminine here ;)

    K.... ....

    Quox
    Because 35 year old men with 18 year old daughters can sing at the top of thier lungs together and know thier daughters have grown up into strong women and pray for them to live this dream! Thanks for the comment, you never know who has ears to listen and eyes to see... strong men cry too and cherish the beautiful hearts of their daughters.

  24. M.... L....

    When I hear this it makes me think of my little baby girl in heaven..... And my 2 living daughters.... 

  25. T.... E....

    it seems every lyric that is sung is words that my mother at one point has said to me, and I feel as if its my mothger talking to me through this song. How I wsh she was still here..I miss my mom so much

  26. r.... ....

    You're a princess now, you own this world.♡

    r.... ....

    @Chris Sauter Absolutely. Just like Obama did.
    XD

    r.... ....

    @Chris Sauter 
    *snorts bamboo powder* YES!

    r.... ....

    Do you happen to watch once upon a time?

    r.... ....

    @icon for hire x flyleaf I DOOOOO

  27. D.... ....

    Im surprised this is one of the less liked flyleaf songs

    D.... ....

    Same it's one of my fav songs off the album 💚💯🔥

  28. B.... S....

    Lacy is so awesome all her songs mean something and she has such a great voice. so original.

  29. D.... ....

    The thing is, I'm 16 but I still love this song shamelessly. Because I am God's child and never had a proper childhood or bond with my parents and I still have that part of me that wants to be a little girl... "A world far off where we only cry from joy" :') don't we all want that?

    D.... ....

    theamvgirlx

    D.... ....

    Do you still like this song

  30. A.... W....

    Lacey wrote this for her younger sister. Just to correct all of the people trying to guess the inspiration behind the song. Beautiful song nonetheless. Great job on the lyrics.

    A.... W....

    Averianna Wilson Could you give me the source for this?

  31. L.... s....

    All those lyrics become much more alive when you've been a christian for a longer time. So beautiful.

    L.... s....

    Don't got to be a Christian to enjoy the song though. XD

    L.... s....

    I'm a christian and that song has so many meanings....

    L.... s....

    +Joleen Rodriguez nobody said you did. that would be absurd.

    this person was speaking for herself...

  32. A.... M....

    I believe its about a very religious and pure young girl, like in les miserables when cosette talks about a castle in the sky , look it up , its almost exactly the same . 
    Young Cosette:
    There is a castle on a cloud,
    I like to go there in my sleep,
    Aren't any floors for me to sweep,
    Not in my castle on a cloud.
    There is a room that's full of toys,
    There are a hundred boy and girls,
    Nobody shouts or talks too loud,
    Not in my castle on a cloud.
    There is a lady all in white,
    Holds me and sings a lullaby,
    She's nice to see and she's soft to touch,
    She says "Cosette, I love you very much."
    I know a place where no one's lost,
    I know a place where no one cries,
    Crying at all is not allowed.
    Not in my castle on a cloud.

  33. m.... r....

    i love this song! 

  34. j.... m....

    WHYYYYY!........why block this song, its the onlu song i cant find. T -T

  35. M.... ....

    "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. Matthew 6:19

    "You build your castles in the sky." 

    M.... ....

    Sky probably meaning to build your treasures in Heaven :) otherwise she probably would have just said to build castles.

    M.... ....

    Of course. She is very Christian.

    M.... ....

    I like the part where she says, "You didn't come this far just to be plundered here, your tower of refuge, your strength. Sleep in this haven the king (Jesus) holds your favor with love much greater than you dream." It gives me strenght. (the video has it wrong.)

    So I believe I am a princess now too, because "To those who overcome, they will share the throne."

    It's Jesus asking her to set apart her dream of heaven. The bride of Christ, clothed in white.

    M.... ....

    Oh... :')  <3
    Thank you so much for making this comment. You give me hope!

    M.... ....

    Mayzism yhjjmkmi

  36. M.... A....

    This Song Is The Saddest- Yet The Most Hopeful I've Heard In Forever. I Think Its Talking About This Little Girl, Who's Parents fight A lot. Since it go's "No-one Cries, Screams, or shouts." And She's basically creating herself a world where her life is better. Over All I Love It Though.

  37. r.... e....

    No, but you can be a righteous prince who guards the honor of the kings princesses. <3

  75. M.... ....

    I feel discrimminated. .-(

  76. T.... ....

    Don't argue about anything. We're all pretty princesses!!! =D

  77. D.... L....

    you said you just "ended up pointing out that most of the comments of most Flyleaf videos are about Christianity" if it doesn't bother you then why would you say it? I wish people would just let Christians post what we want to on CHRISTIAN videos.

  78. y.... ....

    Who says I'm atheist?
    I came here to listen to a song by one of my favorite bands. I ended up pointing out that most comments of most Flyleaf videos are about Christianity, even when the songs don't have much to do with it. Agreed, this one is pretty Jesusy. But some people don't think of it that way. It might just be about a girl doing what ever the hell she's doing. I mean, people interpret music based on themselves. Odds are, mainly Christians would pick up on the Christian-ness in a song.

  79. D.... L....

    you do have really good points, and im sorry that we make you angry, i DO realize that we comment, but the song playing right now IS christian...and you have thousands of other videos to look at, but you came here and tried to tell people to stop posting religious comments....which sounds a whole lot like trying to start something...im really sorry if im wrong here but it also angers me that christians arent allowed to post something about our beliefs without an atheist getting mad over it.

  80. y.... ....

    Flyleaf is an American hard rock band. Not a Christian band. And I'm pretty sure that your job as a Christian in fact isn't to "witness to others" (PS-that makes literally no grammatical sense), but to believe in and worship your God. And that's fine. But you also pointed out that if you "see something that [you] disagree with, [you] will say something." I'm doing the same. But I'm speaking from the other side of the argument, so I'm wrong. Which is why most Christian make me angry.

  81. D.... L....

    because this is a christian band, and though yes, maybe not all of her songs are purely about Christianity (most are), but as Christians our "Job" is to witness to others, and if i see something that i disagree with i will say something, for you to come here and tell me that i need to stop talking about my God severely offends me, especially when there are so many other videos you could be watching that have nothing to do with Christianity.

  82. M.... ....

    when i have some Dauthers i will always sing this to them when they have Bad Dreams it is a cute song love it

  83. y.... ....

    I mean absolutely no disrespect to anyone and/or their religion, but why does everything in all the comments on every Flyleaf video get related back to Christianity? And people trying to convince people there's a God? You know, like... their songs aren't ALWAYS about Jesus, and how Lacey found her way in Jesus, and Jesus and Jesus and Jesus.

  84. U.... ....

    why not? :)

  85. N.... W....

    this made me laugh man, god bless, princess-man

  86. M.... L....

    we men can't be princesses :( ?

  87. B.... C....

    true story, im going to too.

  88. O.... O....

    I love this song

  89. C.... ....

    i love you guys god bless you love your number 1 fan.

  90. J.... R....

    Could you maybe set this to where people can view it on there mobile devices, Please and thank you. <3

  91. E.... M....

    Is the last bit part of another of thier songs?

  92. M.... ....

    bcuz just in case u thought i
    meant the whole band.

  93. k.... ....

    Why did you quote-unquote the word singer?

  94. M.... ....

    oh yea i kno but i meant tht the "singer" sounds Kinda
    like hailey from paramore.

  95. k.... ....

    It was a joke. I was just trying to say "you must be deaf to say that this sounds like Paramore" laced with sarcasm.

  96. k.... ....

    Hello random deaf person.

  97. k.... ....

    I want a sister so much right now.

  98. a.... ....

    How? In any shape or form do they sound like paramore?-_-

  99. J.... B....

    im setting apart my dream for the one i love.
