Cover art for Daydreaming lyrics by Paramore

Living in a city of sleepless people (like any other city people work and work all days long.) Who all know the limits and won’t go too far outside the lines (the people live inside their comfortzone) 'Cause they're out of their minds (basically they're blind for the real life. In their minds certain things in their lifes will make them happy, for example money. They think we are out of our minds but actually they are.) I wanna get out and build my own home (I want to create my own life the way I want it. If I wanna live in the middle of the jungle let me.) On a street where reality is not much different from dreams I've had (where my dreams come true. ) A dream is all I have (my dream is basically all i live for)

Daydreaming, daydreaming all the time Daydreaming, daydreaming into the night Daydreaming, daydreaming all the time Daydreaming, daydreaming into the night And I'm alright ( I'm ok though i live with all these dreams not coming true.)

Creep past the hours like the shorter hand on the clock (trying to make the hours go quickly, just wanna make them pass ) Hanging on a wall of a schoolhouse somewhere We wait for the bell And we dream of somewhere else

Daydreaming, daydreaming all the time Daydreaming, daydreaming into the night Daydreaming, daydreaming all the time Daydreaming, daydreaming into the night And I'm alright

It's not that I won’t remember where I'm from (even if I live in the jungle or whatever and even though I would like to leave this place someday I won't be ashamed of this place this us where I'm from right?) Just don't wanna be here no more (though this is just not where I want to live my life.) It's not enough (we’re only half alive) (this city, country whatever is not enough for me. We're not living life to the fullest. We're only kinda living it, only half) I’m gonna go (we're only half alive) (I'm gonna leave this freaking place.) Where the rest of the dreamers go ( and I'm gonna go where people like me go. I don't think they're pointing at a special location like Southafrica or somewhere i think It's more about going to a place you love.) Where the dreamers go

Daydreaming, daydreaming all the time Daydreaming, daydreaming into the night And I'm alright Daydreaming, daydreaming all the time Daydreamer, we used to be half alive Now I'm alright I'm alright, I'm alright
