V3.5

(Verse 1)
There’s a place I can go where the skies always glow,
And the air feels like freedom on my skin.
I’m the hero they need; I’m the one they believe,
In a world where I always seem to win.
(Pre-Chorus)
I’m a king in their eyes, with the power to rise,
In a world that’s all mine to create.
But when the night ends, I’m back where it begins,
With a smile that feels out of place.
(Chorus)
I’m dancing in a dream where I matter the most,
Where the laughter’s loud and I’m never a ghost.
I’m alive in their hearts, but it’s all in my head,
Building castles in a place where I’m not misread.
Oh, it’s bright, it’s loud, but it’s all just pretend,
When the music fades, I’m alone again.
(Verse 2)
They all cheer when I speak; they all listen to me,
Like I’m something that matters in their lives.
I’m the spark, I’m the flame, and I carry no shame,
Here, there’s nothing I have to disguise.
(Pre-Chorus)
But outside this escape, I’m just a shadow’s shape,
Fading fast in the light of the day.
I don’t dare to confess how this world’s my success,
While reality slips away.
(Chorus)
I’m dancing in a dream where I’m finally seen,
Where my worth’s more than what’s in between.
I’m alive in their love, but it’s all in my mind,
A reflection of the life that I can’t find.
Oh, it’s bright, it’s loud, but it’s all just pretend,
When the music fades, I’m alone again.
(Bridge)
I know it’s not real, but it keeps me afloat,
In the dark where I’m lost and I choke on the hope.
I build these illusions so I can survive,
Where I’m more than a shadow, where I feel alive.
(Guitar Solo)
(Chorus)
I’m dancing in a dream where the sun always shines,
Where I’m loved, and my heart intertwines.
I’m the light in their dark, but it’s all in my head,
In a place where my worth isn’t hanging by a thread.
Oh, it’s bright, it’s loud, but it’s all just pretend,
When the music fades, I’m alone again.
(Outro)
When the world calls me back, I’ll retreat once more,
To the land where I’m something, where I’m not ignored.
I’ll laugh, I’ll smile, till the day does me in,
Dancing alone in the world I begin.
