Dreaming Awake Lyrics

I threw my bed out in the front yard

‘Cause I won’t need it anymore

My eyes have packed their bags, but I don’t care

It’s somehow better than before

So over counting sheep

I refuse to go to sleep

I write stories in my dreams

So why should I just let them be?

No one understands my head

Won’t listen to what I said

They tell me to go to bed

But I can’t leave my dreams for dead

My mind speaks in

Once upon a time

I refuse to walk the line

I’m the one who wonders why

protagonize

My own storyline

I don’t need a lullaby

Cause I dream awake at night

First light of dawn peeks through my window

But I hear music in the rain

Finding my freedom in an old place

I wonder where mind will take me today

not a dark and stormy night

Cause I turned on all my lights

Guess it’s a reasonable price

I refuse to waste my time

When the darkness tries to win

Lock the door, don’t let it in

I let my head start to spin

Baby, let the games begin

My mind speaks in

Once upon a time

I refuse to walk the line

I’m the one who wonders why

protagonize

My own storyline

I don’t need a lullaby

Cause I dream awake at night

Go to sleep

Go to sleep

Oh

Go to sleep

Go to sleep

No

Go to sleep

Go to sleep

Oh

Go to sleep

Go to sleep

I don’t want to go to sleep

My mind speaks in

Once upon a time

I refuse to walk the line

I’m the one who wonders why

protagonize

My own storyline

I don’t need a lullaby

Cause I dream awake at night

I don’t need a lullaby

Cause I dream awake at night
