[Verse 1]
We say, "You run away to utopia."
We say it like it's true
We like to say this
This way of speaking belongs to us
It's safe
[Verse 2]
You say, "A utopia needs to contain this: an actual dream
A dream is where we don't consider ourselves
We just appear in a symbolic state
A dream is where we set ourselves aside
Dreaming is the plan without the plan."
[Pre-Chorus]
And this song is regulated by copyright regulations
And dreaming doesn't have copyright
I guess you could say, "The revolution will not be owned."
[Chorus]
A drеam is a remix of awake
Something is opеned, and lets go of consciousness
And self-control
Like in surgery, something fizzles out
And is replaced
The creature makes its sortie
I wake up to the first frost, experienced
Previously inhabited, like a summer house
What lies by my bed, an impossible creature
Abject and succulent
[Post-Chorus]
A dream, a dream, a dream, a dream, a dream
