Story behind the song

Everybody has fantastic hopes and dreams, but sometime reality brings you down to earth.

Lyrics

Grounded By Reality

I once had dreams
I once had goals 
I once thought it was possible
I once believe it could happen

But I'm grounded by reality
Tethered to the truth's pull
Grounded by reality
Imagination taking its toll

Just once in a while
Just once in my life
Just once to achieve 
Just once to have hope

And then it was dark
It was all surrounding...

I once had dreams
And now are nightmares
I once had hope
And now it crashes upon me

But I'm grounded by reality
Anchored by my doubt
Grounded by reality
Not floating about

Let me find the light
Let me go my way
Let me discover beauty
Let me love & live...

Grounded by reality
