While my real self is sleeping
I'll face the thrashing with a greeting
Ten thousand different ways
But yet it's all the same
Is this what I'm supposed to do?

I just can't fake it
Til the end of this endless day
This endless day
I just won't make it
There's gotta be another way
Just gotta be another way

Then my head when free to go
Overflows
From the spill I build my dreams
Piece by piece

While my real thoughts are sleeping
I'll smile and take a beating
Ten thousand different days
They all went and came
Is this how it's supposed to be?

[Chorus]
Then my face when free to go
Starts to show
And my dreams they are released
Piece by piece

[Chorus]
