Dreaming Dreams
Sim Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh oh oh oh oh! Never forget this refrain
Oh oh oh oh oh! So here we go again

There is too much to do in 24 hours
There is too much work for
Me I've got no power
What's the point in acting the
Same way as others
I think you don't know, either

I'll say it out loud "no"
Cuz I don't want to know
How to bottle up my emotions
And conform to old notion
No, I don't want to know
How to quit dreaming dreams overnight

How could you know about me by a
Interview and a fucking test score
I'll ask you once again
What's the point in acting the
Same way as others
I think you don't know, either

I'll say "no" cuz I don't want to know
How to bottle up my emotions
And conform to old notion
No, I don't want to know
How to quit dreaming dreams overnight

Farewells, the hardships
We must live with everything
I've spend the last 10 years
Every morning I'm still full of fear




But I think this is the
Life with dreaming dreams
