DREAMER

Drifting

Feels like I'm drifting on this journey

Trying to find a hope to cling to

Trying to keep the light alive

 

Somewhere

Some time ago I was a dreamer

But then those dreams, they shattered

 

Like the glass on which I tread

Dreams are memories in my head

Life seems so unstable, yet

Still those things that keep me going through

 

The happiness I find in friends, like you

 

Not so long ago I didn't have a care

I didn't have a heart or a hope to share

And then I met you

You brought me through

You gave me strength to do those things I couldn't do

 

I wanted to break free, I wanted to be me

I wanted to stop living in this treachery

 

And then I met you,

You showed me a way out

You showed me what true friendship was all about

 

Where would I be without my true company?

I'd still be lost in that rhythm, in that monotony

It may seem hard now, and the hope may seem dim

But with my friends here I'll bet I can win

 

Where would I be without my friends beside me?

I'd still be locked up in here without a door or a key

But somehow I still managed to break free

 

Break free...

Break free...

 

So even though my dreams seem so very far away

With my friends I long to stay
