94 Dreaming Songtext
von ATO

The frame ain′t the same no more is it
I painted this picture and let the words reflect my image
Sometimes the truth hurts
Like the first line of this verse
I expected too much
Thinking there were just like me
I've got to start being selfish
Helping others left me helpless
Where the river
Meets the stream
Till the sky falls to its knees
And I could sit here for hours
This perspective
Trespassing thoughts
Behind locked doors
That belong to thrown away keys
You see
Needing me or need me not
Dictates your smile
Falling into lines like I ain′t heard from you in a while


I'll be whoever you want
Providing you put your mind to it
Tryna buy my freedom
Should it afford my pride
I wish I could believe you
But I can't
There′s too much on my plate
Pour me another glass
Drowning in these sorrows
Till I found peace with my past
Drawn into a world where the flower is defined by the vase
And that′s young me by the windowsill
With questions that view can't answer
Guess it′s too, early to say
If what w'eve made are mistakes
You just wanna, lose your mind
To find your soul
I just need to see the world before I call this home
I used to run riot when I was young
Confused, tryna distinguish where someone like me belongs
When did I become the man
The cool kid I was never that
When they′ve learnt to love you for all but yourself
Your deluded wealth undermines your coming so far
Shattered glass
Family portrait suddenly find the present
As we pick the past up
And recall it as heaven
It's never seemed so insignificant
Everything you worked for
Too precious to enjoy
Ourselves we avoid
These thoughts we employ
Too much noise
We just listen for the silence
The sits between the sirens
And I just found a place that no-one else knows
Watch the sky reach till it lets go
I′ve never been afraid to close my eyes before
They'll paint you how they want to in the end
I knew that you'd show
Been caught up where you found me before
Wanna go
Somewhere only we would know
You I said thought I told you to stop dreaming
But your reality never gave me the reason
To stop believing
I chose the darkest path
To emancipate my own feelings
Clouding the vision
Distorting the meaning
I mean its
Clearer now than ever
Growing up under pressure
Nothings ever promised
A slave for the word better
If you see me you don′t know me
Stop pretending
You never attended
Not to mention
I was left to put to bed all of my questions
But I′ll sleep on it
Dream bigger
New frame of mind
The bigger picture
Fingers travel scriptures
Till we capsize
I'ma keep running
We sinning
Pushed back to the beginning
The past speaking to me like a family 20 minute visit
Dreamt of this line last night
Stood at some height
Over the city, prepared to leave all these memories
Behind
Compromised by my
Desire to make it all on my own
You′ll begin to sink in when you're stone
We need a comparative perspective to be free
Happy despite all that you haven′t seen
Scared to look for answers
Coz you know what they might be
94 Dreaming
Still looking for a mirror that I believe in
And I just found a place that no-one else knows
Watch the sky reach till it lets go
I've never been afraid to close my eyes before
They′ll paint you how they want to in the end
I knew that you'd show
I've been caught up where you found me before
Wanna go
Somewhere only we could know
When they′ve learnt to love you for all but yourself
Your deluded wealth undermines your coming so far
Shattered, glass
Family portraits suddenly find the present
As we pick the past up
And recall it as heaven
It′s never seemed so insignificant
Everything you worked for
Too precious to enjoy
Ourselves we avoid
These thoughts we employ
Too much noise
We just listen for the silence
The sits between the sirens
