I need to wake up before I realize I'm dreaming
Or disappoinments will be the last thing on my mind
It's one thing to go through life pretending you're alright
Then go through it on clouds composed of silly schemes

Happy endings don't happen everyday
Try to make it but it don't work out that way
So I hide inside my mind to free me from confining times
Behind the fine line of reality or life

Open my eyes, I have to realize what I've done
Living my life inside a world I'm imagining
Feet first, must look to leap
Step back, can't touch the ground
Look up, look down, just spinning 'round
Make sure sky is down and ground is up
My mind can't take anymore abuse
Is it reality? I thought my brain was just loose

This is my life, I'm completely alone
Lost in the real world and a world all of my own
My one mistake was letting the other world take over me
My second one was letting the real world walk over me
So where am I, dreaming in reality?
Wake me up, I'm dreaming of reality.
