"Our scars have the power to remind us that the past is real."


In a dream
There are no rules
You do as you please
To get away from the fools

You make a dream your own
The plot is in your hands
You can go wherever you want
Take a journey across the lands

Everything is up to you
Who lives and who dies
You decide
Who laughs and who cries

You can battle a dragon
Or duel some knights
You can be a fairy princess
Or get trolls out of fights

However, when you think about it
It all goes away
You wake up in reality
In a brand new day

But reality isn’t so different
From the land of your dreams
Reality isn’t always
As boring as it seems

You may not battle dragons or knights
Or stop a troll with your princess powers
Not everything will go your way
Not everything is a field of flowers

But yet you’re still in charge
In your own reality
You choose what to do with your life
You choose your own normality

You decide where you go
Whether you laugh or cry
It’s all in your hands
Until the day you die

So embrace reality
And stop living in dreamland
Live life to the fullest
It’s your fault if it’s bland
