Realizations of fading away into a storm of memories.
Up above, the sun trapped behind the grey
I felt it's warmth once before...
Once in a dream I held the sun in the palm of my hand.
Righteousness shined so bright in my eyes screaming,
"Live! Live! The storm is distracting you! Please wake up now!"
Opening my eyes, the metaphor wakes and shakes me so hard.
I must live my life before I fall asleep.
I can see past right now since I woke
It's crazy how much dreaming can help
When it rains, I don't want to walk in it, don't want to get out of bed,
I just sulk in my problems, my doubts, and regrets.
Why can't I break free?
Once in a dream we held the sun in the palm of our hand.
Righteousness shined so bright in our eyes screaming,
"Live! Live! The storm is distracting you all! Wake up now!"
Opening our eyes, the metaphor wakes and shakes us so hard.
We must live our lives before we fall asleep.
