Dream

In the dark

And I'm right on the middle mark

I'm just in the tier of everything

That rides below the surface

And I watch from a distance seventeen

And I'm short of the others dreams

Of being golden and on top

It's not what you painted in my head

There's so much there instead of all the colors that I saw

Oh, we all are living in a dream

But life ain't what it seems

Oh, everything's a mess

And all these sorrows I have seen

They lead me to believe

That everything's a mess

But I wanna dream

I wanna dream

Leave me to dream

In the eyes of a teenage crystallized

Oh, the prettiest of lights

That hang the hallways of the home

And the cries from the strangers out at night

They don't keep us up at night

We have the curtains drawn and closed

We all are living in a dream

But life ain't what it seems

Oh, everything's a mess

And all these sorrows I have seen

They lead me to believe

That everything's a mess

But I wanna dream

I wanna dream

Leave me to dream

I know all your reasons

To keep me from seeing

Everything is actually a mess

But now I am leaving

All of us were only dreaming

Everything is actually a mess

We all are living in a dream

But life ain't what it seems

Oh, everything's a mess

And all these sorrows I have seen

They lead me to believe

That everything's a mess

But I wanna dream

I wanna dream

Leave me to dream

I wanna dream

I wanna dream

Leave me to dream
