Quote by Mike Scott

I was grounded while you filled the skies I was dumbfounded by truth you cut through lies I saw the lone empty valley you saw Brigadoon I saw the crescent You saw the whole of the moon

I was grounded while you filled the skies I was dumbfounded

Summary

This quote encapsulates the differences in perspective between two individuals. It suggests that where one person sees limitations and restrictions ("grounded"), the other person sees boundless possibilities ("filling the skies"). One person is captured by the harsh realities and deceptions of life, while the other sees through these illusions and grasps the truth. The contrasting visions of a desolate valley and a vibrant, mystical place like Brigadoon demonstrate their opposing perceptions of the world. Furthermore, while one person sees only a crescent, representing a partial view, the other person sees the entirety of the moon, symbolizing a broader and more encompassing understanding.
