C
Everytime I realize theres
                           Em
something wrong when I see you
C
The way you try to prophesize
                             Em
that dreams just can't come true

Those times you try to undermind
my reach for what I still believe
The times you try to bring me down,
cut me up, and watch me bleed
(I know.)

But now the hand of fate has turned,
opened up and turned inside
What you stole, dreams returned.
My belief in life
(I know.)

          A                   Em
When you turn, you, you turn aside
          A                   Em
When you burn, you, you burn alive

Chorus:
      C
Cause everytime I opened up, well,
                  Em
you were never 'round
    C
And everytime I lost myself,
                       Em
you were nowhere to be found
   C
I lived inside an innocence,
                           Em
but innocence was born to die
   C
Inside the soul of everyone
                           Em
who's lost their faith in life

            D   Em  C
Life is a dream to me
            D   Em  C
Life is a dream to me

Sometimes I wondered it you knew it all the time
I tried to stop my innocence from
leaving you behind
I thought that you were powerful
I once believed that you were strong
But now when I look at you,
I realize theres something wrong

When you turn, you, you turn aside
When you burn, you, you burn alive

Chorus:
Cause everytime I opened up, well,
you were never 'round
And everytime I lost myself,
you were nowhere to be found
I lived inside an innocence,
but innocence was born to die
Inside the soul of everyone who's
lost their faith in life

And life is a dream to me
This life is a dream to me
Yeah life is a dream to me
Your life is a dream to me

Chorus:
Cause now you wanna open up but
theres no one around
And now you wanna lose yourself
in the hope that you'll be found
I see you find your innocence
I see your soul wants to fly
You feel the hand of fate has
turned and given you back your life

My is a dream to you, and me
Life is a dream to you, and me
Your life is a dream to you, and me
