[Verse 1] Bare feet on the kitchen tile News on in the background, lying Scroll past all the crying headlines Sip my coffee like a prayer Little notes on the fridge door peeling "Call your mom" and "water plants" Whole world on fire this Tuesday I still sort the trash by hand [Chorus] A dream within a dream, but I won’t stay sleeping I’m living for a world that’s finally breathing Hands up, hearts up, we don’t need permission I’m wide awake inside this vision A dream within a dream, but I keep on singing I’m living for the day we all stop fleeing From the love we’re made of, the chains we’re leaving A dream within a dream turned freedom [Verse 2] My friend texts from across an ocean Says the sky smells just like smoke We laugh anyway at old inside jokes So we don’t choke on the fear We plant seeds in a busted milk crate On the cracked back porch out back Call it garden, call it future Call it not giving it back [Chorus] A dream within a dream, but I won’t stay sleeping I’m living for a world that’s finally breathing Hands up, hearts up, we don’t need permission I’m wide awake inside this vision A dream within a dream, but I keep on singing I’m living for the day we all stop fleeing From the love we’re made of, the chains we’re leaving A dream within a dream turned freedom [Bridge] Who told you you were helpless? (hey) Who sold you all that doubt? We’re the pulse under the pavement We’re the quiet turning loud [Chorus] A dream within a dream, but I won’t stay sleeping I’m living for a world that’s finally breathing Hands up, hearts up, we don’t need permission I’m wide awake inside this vision A dream within a dream, and we keep on singing We’re living for the day we all stop fleeing From the love we’re made of, the chains we’re leaving A dream within a dream turned freedom (freedom)
