Here in the cold wind of Dallas, where you think it is true, but it's lie, a lie that I have to live with. I just wanna to be free from this world, the place I once see in my childhood dreams that was never meant a thing.
I'm gonna take that lie and throw away, and run for the light, the light of freedom and fly away. I wanna get away from what was a dream that never came true, and wake me up!
[Guitar Solo]
I was a young boy just walking the street of the little city and always had a chip on my shoulders and I had a dream to be that golden boy! But it was never to be this way. I was just a fool that wasted all my fucking time!
[Chorus]
I'm gonna take that lie and throw away, and run for the light, the light of freedom and fly away. I wanna get away from what was a dream that never came true, and wake me up!
[Bridge]
Oh I wish I was home, I wish we never been here! I wanna just give up, but I feel that I might break someone heart and maybe bring shame, and try to stay out of my way! They look at me like I was billboard instead looking at me as a human! I wanna just cut my life, cut life down, like a soldier that sent out in the world just to be killed and I shed so many tears that still kept up me all night and caused to look at myself and feel so haunted.
[Guitar Solo]
[Violin Solo]
Oh I wish I was home.lost in the past, but not to the world. I maybe a fool, and maybe a damn man that was just a damn tool.
[Chorus]
I'm gonna take that lie and throw away, and run for the light, the light of freedom and fly away. I wanna get away from what was a dream that never came true, and wake me up!
[Final Chorus]
I never need this life! I know who I am! I'm not going to let them shape my life! In the end, maybe just maybe, I need to know how much I need, to live the life I desire. Yeah
