Shhh! I'm trying to dream

Oh lonely girl don't you loose your dreams
in someone else's cries
Lonely girl don't you see your life
in someone else's eyes

Lonely world don't you find your faith
in someone else's lies
Lonely world don't you live your life
through someone else's eyes

Oh dream on
Dream on dreamers
Keep on, dream on*

* Lonely World by Robin Thicke

I forget who said it, but: "I'm too grown for that"

Once upon a time in a faraway kingdom
Man made up a story, said that I should believe him
Go and tell your white knight that he's handsome in hindsight
But I don't want the next best thing

So I sing, I hold my head down
And I break these walls 'round me
Can't take no more of your fairytale love

I don't care for your fairytales
You're so worried 'bout the maiden
Though you know she's only waiting
On the next best thing

I don't care, I don't care
You worry 'bout the maiden
Though you know she's only waiting
Spent her whole life being graded
On the sanctity of patience

And a dumb appreciation
But the story needs some mending
And a better happy ending
'Cause I don't want the next best thing
No, no, I don't want the next best thing
