Morning Parade Reality Dream Lyrics

Wound so tightly
I'm the window sill
Bending backwards
And then backwards again
Chasing tales
Round and round until
The party's over
And we've emptied out the world
We'll stop believin'
The lies we tell ourselves
And no more building
Prisons in our heads

Listen no more someday
No lottery of fame
No more fake smilin'
And no more flat champagne
And no more thinking
I won a race I wish I'd lost

Bound by the rest
We tell ourselves that we'll get over this
Hittin' the stand
Cause we were busy making plans

Listen no more MTV and magazines
Wanna start livin' my own
Reality dream
I wanna see it
I wanna be it
I wanna taste it all

Bound by the rest
We tell ourselves that we'll get over this
Hittin' the stand
Cause we were busy making plans
[x2]

And cause all we want is to give
Our hearts to someone else
Love that is everlasting
The kind of love Hollywood sells
And the happy ending
Well it's all we really ask
Don't spend your life pretending
Your happy end already passed
