Verse:
Dm F7
In the dark, and right on the middle mark
A#
Just in the tear of everything
Dm
that rides below the surface
Dm F7
In the watch from a distant seventeen
A# Dm
Surely otherʼs dreams of being golden and on top
Dm F7
Itʼs not, you should paint it in my head
F7
Thereʼs so much much there
A# C
instead of all the colors that I saw
Chorus:
Dm F7
We all are living in a dream
A#
But life ainʼt what it seems
Dm
Oh, everythingʼs a mess
Dm F7
And all these sorrows I have seen
A#
They lead me to believe
Dm
That everythingʼs a mess
Dm
But I want to dream
F7
I want to dream
A# Dm
Leave me to dream
Verse:
Dm F7
In the eyes of a teenage crystallized
A#
Or the prettiest of lights
Dm
That hang the hallways of the home
Dm F7
And the cries from the strangers out at night
A#
They donʼt keep us up at night
C
We have the curtains drawn and closed
Chorus:
Dm F7
We all are living in a dream
A#
But life ainʼt what it seems
Dm
Oh, everythingʼs a mess
Dm F7
And all these sorrows I have seen
A#
They lead me to believe
Dm
That everythingʼs a mess
Dm
But I want to dream
F7
I want to dream
A# Dm
Leave me to dream
Dm F7 A# Dm
Bridge:
Dm F7
I know all your reasons
A# Dm
To keep me from seeing, everything is actually a mess
Dm F7
But now I am leaving
A# Dm
Unless weʼre only dreaming, everything is actually a mess
Chorus:
Dm F7
We all are living in a dream
A#
But life ainʼt what it seems
Dm
Oh, everythingʼs a mess
Dm F7
And all these sorrows I have seen
A#
They lead me to believe
Dm
That everythingʼs a mess
Dm
But I want to dream
F7
I want to dream
A# Dm
Leave me to dream
