Defenders Of The Dreamworld

[Verse 1]
Alarm clock screams
But the sky turns gold
Posters on the wall
Start to break their mold
Laser knights
Jump out of the frame
Rocketboard under his feet
He remembers his name
[Pre-Chorus]
Every sketch he ever scribbled
Standing by his side (oh yeah)
When the shadows start to ripple
He can feel them from inside
[Chorus]
Defenders of the dreamworld
Calling out his name tonight
Every wish he ever whispered
Burns into a battle cry
Defenders of the dreamworld
Light it up and hold that line
If he believes it
He can be it
He’s the spark they’re waiting to find
[Verse 2]
Marble maze
In the clouds up high
Paper dragons fold
Into steel in the sky
Monsters made of doubt
Try to pull him through
But his crayon-colored army
Knows just what to do
[Pre-Chorus]
City made of pillows shaking
But he doesn’t run (no way)
Every tear he ever tasted
Turns electric in his blood
[Chorus]
Defenders of the dreamworld
Calling out his name tonight
Every wish he ever whispered
Burns into a battle cry
Defenders of the dreamworld
Light it up and hold that line
If he believes it
He can be it
He’s the spark they’re waiting to find
[Bridge]
When the nightmare’s crawling
Voices say “you’re small”
He draws a door of lightning
Kicks straight through the wall (hey!)
From the comic books
To the clouds that glow
Every wild idea he’s hiding
Now he lets it go
[Chorus]
Defenders of the dreamworld
Calling out his name tonight
Every wish he ever whispered
Burns into a battle cry
Defenders of the dreamworld
Light it up and hold that line
If he believes it
He can be it
He’s the spark they’re waiting to find
[Chorus]
Defenders of the dreamworld
Raise your hearts and fists up high
All the colors he imagined
Painting over every fight
Defenders of the dreamworld
Till the morning cuts the sky
When he is dreaming
He is leading
He’s the kid who’ll never say die
