I The Mighty Lyrics
"The Dreamer"

(Wake up)

Hey lucid dreamer make up your mind
Caught on the other side
You feel the world stop spinning just before you see the light
Knowing you'll wake in your empty room
You dream for the one you swoon
But dark clouds are arriving, the sun will be rising soon

And that's just the problem
The silence before the storm
Can't you feel the earthquake comin' on?

Yeah yeah
You wake to find that she doesn't even know you're alive
You sew your eyes shut, open up
'Cause there's no way that you can wake up
Until you tell her so

You know it's not the real world
You can't imagine what her touch could be
Back when the hour glass was full
Thought you could float upon a different breeze

But now that wind is starting to blow
Not in your control and it's almost dawn
Can't you feel the earthquake comin' on?

Yeah yeah
You wake to find that she doesn't even know you're alive
You sew your eyes shut, open up
'Cause there's no way that you can wake up
Until you tell her so

Until you tell her so

So you curse at the sun to give into your love
Like a switch that can be turned on
Like you sleep with a plug in your back
Sure enough there's a point it will come undone

Well you're not alone
You're not alone
You're not alone
You're not alone

'Cause she sleeps in fear of another year
That you keep averting your eyes
You don't have a clue that she stares at you
'Cause you're busy dreaming a lie, a lie, a lie, a lie

You can't wake up because you live this lie
That she doesn't even know you're alive
You sew your eyes shut, open up
'Cause there's no way that you can wake up
Until you, you have to, you have to tell her so
