[Intro]
Call me dreamer, a heart in despair
In a world of shadows, but there's light somewhere
With every sunrise, I rise from the pain
Catch me if you can, I’m dreaming again
[Verse 1]
Lying awake in a room full of tears
The echoes of laughter belong to my fears
Parents are gone, siblings lost in the night
But I climb through the darkness, still searching for light
[Pre-Chorus]
No school bells ringing, no games to play
Just whispers of memories that fade away
But with a friend by my side, we laugh through the ache
Even when shadows threaten to break
(Beating )(emotional )
[Chorus]
What a fake smile, hiding the truth
A mask for the heart, picked up in my youth
I lost them all, every piece of my soul
Watch the flames dance and the dreams take their toll
[Verse 2]
But then came the darkness, a betrayal so cruel
My friend was taken, life played the fool
I stood in the ashes, heart heavy with dread
"You lost your bestie," is all that she said
[Pre-Chorus]
I look in her eyes, the hurt it reveals
"What’s left for a dreamer when no one’s ideal?"
But I smile through the pain, though it cuts like a knife
Searching for answers in this broken life
[Chorus]
What a fake smile, hiding the truth
A mask for the heart, picked up in my youth
I lost them all, every piece of my soul
Watch the flames dance and the dreams take their toll
[Bridge]
Burning houses, ashes fly high
Why can't I die? Oh, why even try?
Back to the cradle of a fathomless void
Each tear's a reminder of love being destroyed
[Outro]
Call me dreamer, I continue to fight
In this world of darkness, I reach for the light
With a smile of sorrow, I build from the pain
For every lost dream, I’ll rise once again
[Outro]
So call me dreamer, a heart brave and true
In a storybook life, I’ll chase what I knew
Though all’s been taken, I’ll learn how to cope
With every lost dream, I’ll build up my hope
