lyrics

I know that I am not perfect
But I give to you all that I am
In the hopes I'll reflect on this moment
As the day when the whole world began
And if yesterday comes here to find me
And I no longer care to be found
I'll be laughing out loud with tomorrow
And burning today to the ground

If I could close my eyes, I'd see
That there's a place for me
In a world of dreams
But I can't sleep
When I dream this deep
It makes my thoughts incomplete

And there's a home I've created with memories
In a town full of corners to stand on
And speak to each other of longings
Talk of the pictures we've drawn
Of a thousand impossible futures
In a thousand impossible ways
All involving some places we've heard of
Or read in a book yesterday

If I could close my eyes, I'd see
That there's a place for me
Where I'll never be
Cause I don't believe
In a world of dreams

And I can't breathe
When I sleep this deep
It makes my dreams incomplete
And I can't dream
If I never scream
And let myself go back to sleep.
