UPSIDE DOWN WE DREAM

I want to be better than I’ve been, Turn the lights on, gotta’ be strong For myself, not anyone else, And let the rest come after. No, I can’t help it, That my heart beats fast And my shaking hands move slow, But it’s a small price that I pay To wake up every day alive. I know I’m getting locked on again, Think it’s all wrong again, But it’s only in my mind. Remind me when I can’t think straight That it’s temporary. Tell me, baby, that it’s okay, Someday we’ll be miles away. Tell me, baby, that it’s alright, Someday we’ll be waving goodbye. I want a little house in the woods, In the trees, where I’ll be free to roam. No matter where I go, I’ll be feelin’ fine with you by my side. I can’t help but feel bitter about my past. It’s where I learned that friends don’t last, But I’ve got a love to hold my weathered, worn hands. The pain is only temporary. I know I’m getting locked on again, Think it’s all wrong again, But I’m just lingering on, The things that I can’t change. Give me clarity, so I can Close my eyes and breathe. Tell me, baby, that it’s okay, Someday we’ll be miles away. Tell me, baby, that it’s alright, Someday we’ll be waving goodbye.  There’s more to life than friends Who don’t give a damn about me. And there’s more to life Than making the same mistakes. Tell me, baby, that it’s okay, Someday we’ll be miles away. Tell me, baby, that it’s alright, Someday we’ll be waving goodbye.
