Dream On

Loaded like a gun, about to fire away and I’ve become numb inside Sugarcoated in lullabies and lies today…in the shadows, I simply hide Wish I wasn’t so sober, but I cherish my progress quite well The dungeons of loneliness is where I dwell, dwell, dwell But, I want you to dream on and on and on I want you to shine like the arrival of the dawn Dream on until you travel forward Never, ever go backward without a word Tell someone how you feel for real Honestly, I am feeling like an absurd bird Dream on and take wing with the herd I heard you’re also lonesome in your skin Where do I begin? So, when will I wear my skin thin instead of thick with sorrow within? Dream on until you grieve no more I don’t deserve you, the one I adore They’re all living a dream…graciously been glory-whelmed, it’s crazy We’re still together in my mind and sooner or later, I’m going to live abundantly We are a mighty strange team and you’re a shiny beam above But, I no longer feel left behind while I cuddle with your love But, I want you to dream on and on and on I want you to shine like the arrival of the dawn Dream on until you travel forward Never, ever go backward without a word Tell someone how you feel for real Honestly, I am feeling like an absurd bird But, I want you to dream on and on and on I want you to shine like the arrival of the dawn Dream on until you travel forward Never, ever go backward without a word Tell someone how you feel for real Honestly, I am feeling like an absurd bird Dream on and take wing with the herd I heard you’re also lonesome in your skin Where do I begin? So, when will I wear my skin thin instead of thick with sorrow within? Dream on until you grieve no more I don’t deserve you, the one I adore Dream on and take wing with the herd I have perseverance and strength I preserved Inside me, inside me What about you, baby? But, I want you to dream on and on and on I want you to shine like the arrival of the dawn Dream on until you travel forward Never, ever go backward without a word Tell someone how you feel for real Honestly, I am feeling like an absurd bird Dream on and take wing with the herd I heard you’re also lonesome in your skin Where do I begin? So, when will I wear my skin thin instead of thick with sorrow within? Dream on until you grieve no more I don’t deserve you, the one I adore I heard you’re also lonesome in your skin Where do I begin? So, when will I wear my skin thin instead of thick with sorrow within? Dream on until you grieve no more I don’t deserve you, the one I adore Even though I’m so used to being alone, I won’t live without you mentally and emotionally Even though I’m better off on my own, I don’t have to worry because I cherish you eternally But, I want you to dream on and on and on I want you to shine like the arrival of the dawn Dream on until you travel forward Never, ever go backward without a word Tell someone how you feel for real Honestly, I am feeling like an absurd bird Dream on and take wing with the herd I heard you’re also lonesome in your skin Where do I begin? So, when will I wear my skin thin instead of thick with sorrow within? Dream on until you grieve no more I don’t deserve you, the one I adore Living life in a blur it seems Dream on, even in your dreams Giving strife a middle finger Because I’m a great singer Confidence is in my stride Even though you don’t abide by my side Subside from my side, negativity Aside from that, I reveal my positivity With eyes wide open or shut, I will remain huddled in my hut I pray You’ll save me I embrace true liberty
