A Dream Away Lyrics

Five in the morning all alone in your room
Door locked tight private moon
No faces to face no one to blame
Nonexistent inside this frame
Take it on the run

There's a cheetah walking high
Liquid whispers dragonfly
Charleston booties painted toes
Drop the knot ivory soul
Take it on the run
'Cause the good life is just a dream away

Choke emotion lose control
Chicken encounters fill your bowls
The lonely crowd is decomposed
Lost obsession future froze
Take it on the run
'Cause the good life is just a dream away

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Masturbation. This song is simply about masturbation.

Remember, It's just a dream away...
