putting my dreams inside a book
you can read them when you know me, know me
when will i realise i can't do everything?
will i decide i'd die for anything?
when i'm not sure to drop out or drop dead
i sit in silence and wait for something to happen
but nothing does, and nothing will
and i know it's not like that, it's just fun
and i know it's not that bad, but it's not good
and i know it's not like that, it's just fun
for you
as soon as i got back here from being at home
i felt like i could float away if i just jumped and held my breath
i haven't felt this light for a long time
i haven't felt this light before
and i know it's not like that, it's just fun
and i know it's not that bad, but it's not good
and i know it's not like that, it's just fun
for you
putting my dreams inside a book
(i haven't felt this light for a long time, i haven't felt this light before)
