Lyrics and translation
Original
You say I've been making up stories
And ever since I was a child, I tend to cry too much
You think that it can be misleading
To keep on pretending each moment is a movie scene
If nothing is real or can be undone
I never needed a crystal ball
If I could go back in time and be ahead of it all
Dream life, I laughed so hard, I woke up
I couldn't tell any difference, the future and the past
If I had known it could be so easy
I'd have surrendered and let it all go a long, long time ago
Some people, they like to speak their own mind
But me, I prefer to be quiet and keep it to myself
'Cause often, if I say it out loud
It slips through my fingers, I ask myself, "What did I miss?"
If nothing is real, can I take control?
Do any of my actions matter at all
If I could go back in time and do it all over again?
Dream life, how can you tell if it's real?
Oh, let me see it through your eyes, don't make it disappear
If I let it roll, where will it take us?
It's just a little switch to unlimited possibilities
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah
Dream life, I laughed so hard, I woke up
I couldn't tell any difference, the future and the past
If I had known it could be so easy
I'd have surrendered and let it all go a long, long time ago
