Dreamland

With extra time I'd like to think I would've done this better
The fact I could ever fail never crossed my mind
Somewhere out there hear my demons screaming now or never
I think I just crossed that line

I'm kinda done with hanging out in bottle service
You confused me yeah you used me, but that's just as well
Hungry people try to break me, make me kinda nervous
Just goes to show that you never can tell

Does everybody live in a dreamland
Is this dreamland all that we know
Swallowing us up in an avalanche
And blurring these lines with smoke
They tell me that I should be a real man
But the only thing that I know
Is that I'll find my way out of this wasteland
'Cause this wasteland ain't home

With extra time I could have made up better words and letters
Pale shadows of my heroes help me rule the night
Somewhere out there hear my people screaming do it better
I'm just an echo of the things I like

I'm tired of never feeling like I'll serve a purpose
Snow on mirrors, future killers, yeah just be yourselves
Hungry people always stressing, guess it never surfaced
Just goes to show that you never can tell

Does everybody live in a dreamland
Is this dreamland all that we know
Swallowing us up in an avalanche
And blurring these lines with smoke
They tell me that I should be a real man
But the only thing that I know
Is that I'll find my way out of this wasteland
'Cause this wasteland ain't home

If I don't believe in all the old gods or the new
How am I supposed to find my way?
Searching the universe for something we can do
And living to fight another day and that's okay

We're falling from the top of the tree house
And no one cares if we go
I stumble over to a policeman
He says, "Son, you better get back home"
And everybody's laughing at me now
From their faces covered in snow
I'm trying to be the best I could be now
They say make it something we know

Does everybody live in a Dreamland
Is this Dreamland all that we know
Swallowing us up in an avalanche
And blurring these lines with smoke
They tell me that I should be a real man
But my pride will be the first thing to go
I gotta get out of this wasteland
'Cause this wasteland ain't home
Wasteland ain't home

(Just goes to show that you never can tell)

Does everybody live in a Dreamland
Is this Dreamland all that we know
Swallowing us up in an avalanche
And blurring these lines with smoke
They tell me that I should be a real man
But the only thing that I know
Is that I'll find my way out of this wasteland
'Cause this wasteland ain't home
