Difference Between Humans and the Dead

I can see incredible sights, I just need to close my eyes.
Cities, countries even planets seem to be so clear when I shut my eyes,
And yet you remain ignorant to them. Why?
Is it that you're so broken by society that you can't even imagine a new world?
Can you tell me the last time you could close your eyes and see an adventure?
Glories, riches and excitement and in a simple movement of your body,
But you can't seem to muster up the ability to live life in both worlds.
Imaginary and Reality, those are what separate those who are lively and those who are a walking tool.
You could say its the difference between the heart and the brain.
Yet there were those who could walk in both reality and imaginary.
In the beginning there were millions who could live in both worlds.
Today what was once millions in now thousands, what happened?
What was once adventure to a new peaks is now replaced with arrogance and ignorance.
Kids once went outside and pretended to be knights and kings and grew with goals.
Now they can't even leave the house without a damn phone.
Where did our transcendence go? Our adventure? Our goal?
