lyrics

I don’t really wanna wake up
I’m only what my dreams are made of
but see life makes
No promises
Ever wonder what happens when you stop believing?

Darling, are you still ashamed
Caught up in your own web
Falling short of who you thought you would be
you could be

Tell me, are you still afraid
Of what reflection might unveil
Do you know that i will love you all ways?
I promise you

What do you hear when you sit still ?
(I'm telling you, it ain't a big deal)
You could trade it all for something real
Finally grieve
Freedom rings
But the deafening tone of struggle is too familiar
uh huh?

Darling, are you still unchanged?
Latching on to old regrets
Falling short of who you thought you should be
But that’s okay

Tell me, are you still afraid
You could start over and reset
Don’t you know that i will love you always
It’s all up to you
