Didn′t know what I was saying
Couldn't hear what I was thinking
Crushed under a million layers
Clouded by a thousand filters

Here I am standing on a precipice
Guess what, I found out where the exit is
Should I go alone or lead an exodus?
Do I wanna know what awaits for us?

I′d trade all of my songs for a peace of mind
For only a moment of hope that I need to find

Please remind me how to daydream
To find some meaning in this endless painstream
I don't wanna try to keep my heart from breaking
'Cause I′m aware that it′s the ache that makes me
A living being

Didn't know what I was saying
Couldn′t hear what I was thinking
'Til I dug up a million layers
′Til I shook off a thousand filters, yeah

So I called a therapist and an exorcist
To help me look past all for could've been
Buried alive in time was my inner kid
(It′s been a while, dreamer, how you've been?)

Please remind me how to daydream
To find some meaning in this endless painstream
I don't wanna try to keep my heart from breaking
′Cause I′m aware that it's the ache that makes me
A living being
A living being

I′d trade all of my songs for a peace of mind
For only a moment of hope that I need to find
To feel alive (to feel alive)

Please remind me how to daydream
To find some meaning in this endless painstream
I don't wanna try to keep my heart from breaking
′Cause I'm aware that it′s the ache that makes me
A living being
(makes me a living, breathing, dreaming, grieving)
(Bleeding, slowly-healing, ever feeling being)
