Verse
looking at the world through tinted glass
tryin’ to see the future from our past
if you believe we can make it last
more than one day
these are things we used to fear
this is our world it’s all so clear
let’s dance around the road blocks in our way
Chorus
caus’ this is the day you dream
this time it’s all it seems
your turn to dance
this is your chance to break through
the whole world awaits you
Verse
down the unpaved streets and old dirt roads
lost highways and great unknowns
in this desert now a garden stands
this is the place once torn apart
this is the dream you know by heart
so dance around the road blocks up ahead
Chorus
caus’ this is the day you dream
this time it’s all it seems
your turn to dance
this is your chance to break through
the whole world awaits you
Bridge
the night fades away as we break through
it’s the life that was meant to be
Chorus
this is the day you dream
this time it’s all it seems
your turn to dance
this is your chance to break through
the whole world awaits you
this is the day you dream
this time it’s all it seems
your turn to dance
this is your chance to break through
the whole world awaits you
the whole world awaits you
the whole world awaits you

Verse
you can wind me up
take me for a trip i can hardly handle
set my world ablaze and
burn me like a birthday candle
tell me that you mean it
with all those sugar coated lies
and tempt me baby tempt me baby
tempt me with your eyes
Chorus
you can break me down
and put me back together every time
you can melt my heart like butter
and drink it up like wine
you can say it’s the journey
you can say that’s the only thing that matters
but it’s my heart baby
my heart baby
my heart that you’ve shattered
Verse
if you turn around
when you’re walkin’ out that door
and say once again
that you don’t love me anymore
you can change your mind
and you might turn around again
but i’ll remember i’ll remember
i’ll remember when
Chorus
you could break me down
and put me back together every time
you can melt my heart like butter
and drink me up like wine

my heart baby
my heart that you’ve shattered

Verse
you can’t have what’s not yours
you always used to say
now we stand by watchin’ as it all slips away
tried to make a difference but we just made a mess
letting go has been my greatest test
Chorus

so far out of this world
spend my days tryin’ to understand
how do treasures turn to chains
sweet passion turn to pain
and you swore you’d never let go of my hand

set it down get it straight
don’t let it turn into something it never was
if she’s meant to be yours
somehow she’s gonna stay
and if she’s not she’s sure to fly away

tryin’ to learn how to let it go
when its time to walk away
how the hell am i to know

set it down and get it straight

if she’s not she’s sure to fly away

Verse
i saw a double rainbow yesterday
on the news at five
what a wonderful way to pass the time
ain’t it good to be alive
now i’m sitting in a massive traffic jam
on the GWB
they say a fat man planned the whole thing
and that beats the shit out of me
Chorus
but i’ve got my tv
got the real housewives to soothe me
and amazon delivers
more crap i can’t afford
who needs revolution
we got the facebook solution
just give me 5G
who could ask for anything more (guitar)
Verse
i drove down to the whole foods store
tryin’ to get some health into me
there’s a plastic island the size of Texas
that’s floating out to the sea
gmo’s in my corn flakes
arsenic in the water supply
there’s one hundred cures for cancer
and a million ways to die
Chorus
but i’ve got my tv
got the real housewives to soothe me
amazon delivers
more crap i can’t afford

tree fell in the forest with no sound
some things go up and won’t come down
tomorrow’s just a day we’ll leave behind
only precious time so
drawing circles in the sandbox in your mind
when tomorrow won’t be
another sunny day the clouds can’t find
(It’s a line) these lines (just a line)
we’re drawing get so fine
it’s only in your dream so far
don’t you wanna scream so hard
your eyes get bleary blurring lines
it’s just your fear of fireflies
don’t panic mister
it’s only in your dream so far
(la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la)
(ahh) look at how your world goes round and round
(ahh) did you stop think its upside down
the sorrow stems from seasons left behind
in a place we knew as kind
today is fading to a crooked line
and tomorrow will be just another day the sun to shine
(it’s a line) the line (just a line)
we draw is getting fine
it’s only in your dream so far
and you wanna scream so hard
this is how the day goes
anyway the wind blows
this is how the song gets sung
