| There’s a guy, he’s thinking about high school
|
| Stuck reminiscing on the wonders of the glory days
|
| There’s a girl — day after her wedding
|
| She doesn’t feel any different than before in many ways
|
| «Such is life,» you whisper passively
|
| «Where did my dream go?»
|
| This is not what I imagined
|
| But this is real life in the trenches
|
| And we are living the dream
|
| Every day comes with the promise that
|
| It could be great if you want it
|
| And we are living the dream
|
| We’re living the dream
|
| As for me, I’m singing a new song
|
| I’m not gonna dwell inside some alternate reality
|
| I feel free — I’m making the best of it
|
| Seeing with eyes that find the heart and soul of true beauty
|
| Cuz every breath can build up something
|
| Tear it down, or just leave it be
|
| What’ll it be?
|
| Those with the richest lives
|
| That could be you and I
|
| Let’s answer the call to die
|
| We could be satisfied
|
| This is not what I imagined
|
| But this is real life in the trenches
|
| And we are living the dream
|
| Every day Love makes the promise
|
| That we can be great if we want it
|
| And we are living the dream
|
| Highs and lows we’ll take on together
|
| Choosing joy whatever the weather
|
| Now we are living the dream
|
| And this is the dream |
