Dreamcatcher
Fangclub Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I just want to be myself
Everybody needs somebody
To take it out of someone else
So what
So what
Yeah, so well
All that's come, and come before
Like a gun to my skull
You're my dreamcatcher
I don't want to walk in circles
I don't want to walk this line
Never has it been so hurtful
Do we have a single type for me, for me
Yeah, so well
All that's come, and come before
You're my dreamcatcher
Like a gun to my skull
You're my dreamcatcher
All that's come gone before
You're my dreamcatcher
Like a gun to my skull
You're my dreamcatcher
All that's come, come before
You're my dreamcatcher
Like a gun to my skull
You're my dreamcatcher
Dreamcatcher
