Dreams
Music and lyrics by Matt McDaniel
Was it her that made you think that all your dreams would soon come true?
Was it him that made you feel like you're the fool?
Was it time that made you think that there's an end and it's coming soon?
Was it fear that made you hide inside your room?
Time and time again we try to change what we don't understand
In the end we're left with nothing but our plans
You try to change their mind, but they think you should change this time
So you do what you do best and press rewind
They say you haven't got a shot
You say you'll do the best with what you've got
They say you steer too far off the track
You say you'll never let them steer you back
And you always knew what they'd do
You always knew they'd come true
So you try to take a ride down the only path you know
You hope and wish and pray that it'll take you where you want to go
You run from all your fears until you finally hit your stride
and you dreams begin to function as your guide
After countless tries, the track don't seem so straight this time,
so you do your best to paralyze your mind
All your thoughts and fears just slide on down the drain
until you feel no pain
Was it him that made you feel like you're the fool?
Was it time that made you think that there's an end and it's coming soon?
Was it fear that made you hide inside your room?
Time and time again we try to change what we don't understand
In the end we're left with nothing but our plans
You try to change their mind, but they think you should change this time
So you do what you do best and press rewind
They say you haven't got a shot
You say you'll do the best with what you've got
They say you steer too far off the track
You say you'll never let them steer you back
And you always knew what they'd do
You always knew they'd come true
So you try to take a ride down the only path you know
You hope and wish and pray that it'll take you where you want to go
You run from all your fears until you finally hit your stride
and you dreams begin to function as your guide
After countless tries, the track don't seem so straight this time,
so you do your best to paralyze your mind
All your thoughts and fears just slide on down the drain
until you feel no pain
