I thought I was living life all the while I’ve been asleep,
Blinded by the light to the things I didn’t know I need,
Won’t you teach me, show me the wisdom I can’t see,
I'm living in my dreams
Dreaming is for free,
When my eyes are closed, baby let me be,
Bridge the gap between my subconscious mind and me,
Whispering to me, of all my insecurities,
In search for inner peace, I tune into my frequency,
I wander through the land of visions almost frequently,
I stomp the heads of the shadows, they won’t leave me be,
A metaphor for the war I fight in secrecy
I thought I was living life all the while I’ve been asleep,
Blinded by the light to the things I didn’t know I need,
Won’t you teach me, show me the wisdom I can’t see,
I’m living in my dreams
I gave up long time ago,
Trying to separate what I do and do not know,
And keep my dreams in tow,
Sow the seeds in my dreams,
Find the wisdom that I need,
Always out of reach, always found in each,
Oh I need to know,
Am I alive or am I just dead?
Has what I'm saying already been said?
A world out there or is it just in my head,
Or maybe a dream as I lay in my bed?
The only way out is the only way in,
The only dream is the wind that sings,
What will the morning bring?
I thought I was living life all the while I’ve been asleep,
Blinded by the light to the things I didn’t know I need,
Won’t you teach me, show me the wisdom I can’t see,
I’m living in my dreams
