[Verse 1] We pulled the Christmas lights down On another Monday morning, Wading into another year Not knowing if it’s going to be the same. Forcing ourselves to find the hope Like we used to have one day, Wanting dreams to come true Where we can take anything that comes our way. [Chorus] (Hook) We are not made to sleep, Just to burn then fade away, Forcing ourselves to find the hope Like we used to have one day. Wanting dreams to come true, Where we can take anything that comes our way. [Verse 2] So what if we don’t get any quiet moments, We are not made to sleep just to burn then fade away. All the responsible people tell us That we are getting better now, But everything must be getting worse If they are on our side. [Chorus] (Repeat) We are not made to sleep, Just to burn then fade away, Forcing ourselves to find the hope Like we used to have one day. Wanting dreams to come true, Where we can take anything that comes our way. [Verse 3] Another dream characterised With outlines of a nightmare, A white picket fence, taxes, children And no way out of here. Some day’s it doesn’t even feel Like we are fighting against the rip, But underneath I know I’m not ready to drown in this ordinary. [Bridge] (Reflective Peak) So now I’m ripping down the decorations And sanding off the paint, Giving myself a chance To recreate the place that I call home. I may have said that this is almost the end But you shouldn’t believe me, I’m not making any promises When I don’t know, if I ,can keep them. [Final Chorus / Outro] We are not made to sleep, Just to burn then fade away, Forcing ourselves to find the hope Like we used to have one day. Wanting dreams to come true, Where we can take anything that comes our way. [Wanting dreams to come true, Where we can take anything that comes our way.]
