Oh beautiful daydream, wake up with me Come to the world, see what you could be A world with you there could be oh so sweet The labor of men swept from their feet Beautiful daydream, tell me a lie Tell me I'm lovely or leave me to die Tell me I'm beautiful, just like you And leave me for nothing before you are through

I used to build card houses Now Im paying all these bills How can I climb these mountains When I stumble over hills I still feel like a child Still stuck in make believe Hoping that I might wake up To find this all a dream What happened to the years I had Those days when I was young Oh what has time done to myself No, forget it, now Im done Im digging through the walls now They cave in like wet sand How can I take for myself Without knowing where I stand? Ive got bones locked in my closet My skeletons fell apart I ripped them all to pieces When someone broke my heart They made me start to see My years had got the best of
