Dreamer

I dream of better days when
 I was a child, everything
 Seemed so easy through that narrow little lens
 I just want to feel that way again
 Recount the hands of the clock as they came and went
 We mourn the loss of the people we were back then
 Through the seeds that we've sewn
 We're growing slowly, slowly, cynical, cynical
 We're selling days at a time like it's time well spent
 We mourn the loss of the people we were back then
 Through the seeds that we've sewn
 We're growing slowly, slowly, cynical, cynical
 Hey you better come out right swinging kid
 And I don't mind about the places you say you've been
 Hey you better come out right swinging kid
 And I don't mind about the places you say you've been
 Maybe when we're older and wiser
 Fractured sight will start to feel comfortable
 Scratch the eyes till we are good and blind
 Help us see again a second time
 Recount the hands of the clock as they came and went
 We mourn the loss of the people we were back then
 Through the seeds that we've sewn
 We're growing slowly, slowly, cynical, cynical
 We're selling days at a time like it's time well spent
 We mourn the loss of the people we were back then
 Through the seeds that we've sewn
 We're growing slowly, slowly, cynical, cynical
 Hey you better come out right swinging kid
 And I don't mind about the places you say you've been
 Hey you better come out right swinging kid
 And I don't mind about the places you say you've been
 Take it
 Your whole life's ahead of you
 Don't let it go to your head
 When you're sleeping
 Breathe in slow
 Dream as high as your
 Bedroom ceiling will allow you to
 All of the things you'll do
 Take it
 Your whole life's ahead of you
 Just don't let it get to you
 Aim your arrow high
 Not only for yourself, but also
 For us and all who follow
 Take your rightful time
 But remember that all this time is borrowed
 From someone else
