This is the realm of imagination

Where everything is all perfection

This is the place where nothing brings me down

Until cold hard reality sets in

WAKE…. UP

WAKE…. UP

WAKE…. UP

*Chorus*

And even with all that goes wrong

We stand and fight and sing this song

All of my hopes and dreams fall down and die

I stand upon the ground and yell into the sky

This is the song that I sing

This is the symphony of broken dreams

*Chorus*

In this paradise in my mind is where I reside

I see the light amidst the dark

You can not have what you want in life

so accept the truth that cuts like a knife and move on with your life

WAKE…. UP

WAKE…. UP

WAKE…. UP

*Chorus*

And even with all that goes wrong

We stand and fight and sing this song

All of my hopes and dreams fall down and die

I stand upon the ground and yell into the sky

This is the song that I sing

This is the symphony of broken dreams

*Chorus*

*Speech*

Arise now

You must now face the day

You will come back

Feel yourself fade back into conscious

Feel your dreams begin to shatter

None of this is real

None of it matters

You must now accept it

You can’t have what you want

Goal number one is to survive

If you can’t achieve that how do you think you can thrive?

Hear that?
That is, the Symphony of Broken dreams

*Speech*

*Chorus*

And even with all that goes wrong

We stand and fight and sing this song

And our voices we will raise

And it goes on and on

All of my hopes and dreams fall down and die

I stand upon the ground and yell into the sky

This is the song that I sing

This is the symphony of broken dreams

*Chorus*
