Walking in a strange light, looking at the walls The walls are getting higher and I think they're gonna fall They're gonna fall down over me, crush me till I scream Now I'm only hoping that I'm living in a dream It's just a dream;it's just a dream; Fear lies over me, I feel it all around Something's looking at me and I think it's got a crown It's not a king or a queen but something in between Now I'm only hoping that I'm living in a dream It's just a dream;it's just a dream; It's strange how things seem to be different When you're living in a dream It's strange how things seem to be different When you're living in a dream Wars and violence here happen every day But I'm in another world a million miles away It's just like real life, true life, living in a dream But everything is better then, or that's the way it seems It's just a dream;it's just a dream; It's strange how things seem to be different When you're living in a dream It's strange how things seem to be different When you're living in a dream It's strange how things seem to be different When you're living in a dream It's just a dream It's strange how things seem to be different When you're living in a dream It's strange how things seem to be different When you're living in a dream It's strange how things seem to be different When you're living in a dream It's strange how things seem to be different When you're living in a dream Living in a dream living in a dream living in a dream
