Lyrics and translation
Original
I got everything I wanted, so why am I still sad?
Worked so hard and now I've done it, but the moment came and passed.
I thought that everything would change if I got it all, but I'm still the same.
I think I like the idea of my dreams better than reality.
I think it's better living life aspiring than any of it happening.
The grass is always greener on the other side, so I'd rather stay right here and live a humble life.
It's only ever perfect, so it seems, in the idea of my dreams.
Oh.
It's not that I'm not grateful, but everything has pros and cons.
If I'm really so successful, then why do I feel so lost?
I think I like the idea of my dreams better than reality.
I think it's better living life aspiring than any of it happening.
The grass is always greener on the other side, so I'd rather stay right here and live a humble life.
It's only ever perfect, so it seems, in the idea of my dreams.
Oh.
The idea of my dreams.
Oh. I thought that everything would change if
I got it all, but I'm still the same.
I think I like the idea of my dreams better than reality.
I think it's better living life aspiring than any of it happening.
The grass is always greener on the other side, so I'd rather stay right here and live a humble life.
It's only ever perfect, so it seems, in the idea of my dreams.
Oh. The idea of my dreams.
Oh.
