I Once Had A Dream

Dream I once had a dream
But then came 18
With all her friends to shut me off
And put me in my place
No more time to waste
Put on a straight face
Stay in my lane
And make sure that I repeat every day
I used to smile a lot more when I was in 3rd grade
I only cared about my friends and beyblades
My teachers let me live inside my own utopia
I'll never get back this feeling of euphoria
True none of it was true
I was young and lied to
Grownups all end up on the boulevard of broken
Dream I once had a dream
But then came 18
With all her friends to shut me off
And put me in my place
No more time to waste
Put on a straight face
Stay in my lane
And make sure that I repeat every day
Came a time when I realized that
I can't go back
And I'm off track

Or maybe I don't feel the same

With a life so bland
And a washed up band

Dream I once had a dream
But then came 18
With all her friends to shut me off
And put me in my place
No more time to waste
Put on a straight face
Stay in my lane
And make sure that I repeat every day
I had a dream
Eat sleep work repeat yeah that's the way
I had a dream
Work work work repeat yeah that's the way
Dream I once had a dream
But then came 18
With all her friends to shut me off
And put me in my place
No more time to waste
Put on a straight face
Stay in my lane
And make sure that I repeat every day
I had a dream
Eat sleep work repeat yeah that's the way
I had a dream
And now I gotta fake my greatest smile
