I

When I'm down
I dream awake
About everything
I cannot take
The heartbreaks
The sadness
The tears
The madness
Everything I wish I had
Everything that makes me sad
That is not where I want to stay
Every time I dream away

II

When everything's wrong
I dream awake
Of all the choices
That I make
I dream of love
That isn't real
About the girl
That made me feel
Everything I wish was mine
Everything that's on my mind
That is not where I want to stay
I just want to get away

III

When I'm alone
I dream awake
Reality
I forsake
And just for once
I want to go
To a happy place I know
Where everything I want is mine
Where there's nothing on my mind
Where the girl I want will want me back
Where I'll have everything I lack
That is where I want to stay
Every time I dream away
