Why do I daydream?

Why do I get my hopes up at all?

I've been living this Walter Mitty life

For too long



Somebody save me

I'm a prisoner of my own fear

Sometimes fantasy is the only

Thought I can bear



My mind is a dream-filled balloon

Dripping dreams into my shoes

And I'm too afraid to move

To face the real world



And when I fall, I fall down hard

When will I ever learn?

Don't take your dreams to heart

You'll only wind up getting

Burned



Maybe I'm lazy

But circumstances always knock me down

So I'll just lie here, never get up

Off the ground



But maybe it's crazy

To sit and think of all the things I wanna do

What's the use in dreaming when dreams

Never come true?



And when I fall, I fall down hard

When will I ever learn?

Don't take your dreams to heart

You'll only wind up getting

Burned



Why do I daydream?

Why do I daydream?

Why do I bother?

Why?



Time to get up off your ass

Pull your head out – take a chance

Grab whatever you can grab

'Cause there's no such thing

No such thing
