Why do I daydream? Why do I get my hopes up at all? I've been living this Walter Mitty life For too long Somebody save me I'm a prisoner of my own fear Sometimes fantasy is the only Thought I can bear My mind is a dream-filled balloon Dripping dreams into my shoes And I'm too afraid to move To face the real world And when I fall, I fall down hard When will I ever learn? Don’t take your dreams to heart You’ll only wind up getting Burned Maybe I'm lazy But circumstances always knock me down So I'll just lie here, never get up Off the ground But maybe it’s crazy To sit and think of all the things I wanna do What’s the use in dreaming when dreams Never come true? And when I fall, I fall down hard When will I ever learn? Don’t take your dreams to heart You’ll only wind up getting Burned Why do I daydream? Why do I daydream? Why do I bother? Why? Time to get up off your ass Pull your head out – take a chance Grab whatever you can grab 'Cause there’s no such thing… No such thing
