Daydreams

She sits in the back of the class Lost in a world that's not her own Her mind escapes to scenes so vast In movies and books, she feels at home But when the bell rings, she's brought back to reality A world full of judgment and cruelty She's a school girl dreaming too big for this town Living in movies where love is always found In between the pages of a book, she finds solace Escaping from her cracks and gaps with every promise The teacher drones on about history But all she sees are castles made of gold Where knights come riding to set her free From all the secrets that remain untold But when the day ends, she's left with broken dreams A heart full of desire bursting at its seams She's a school girl dreaming too big for this town Living in movies where love is always found In between the pages of a book, she finds solace Escaping from her cracks and gaps with every promise She knows deep down it won't be long until She spreads her wings against their will And flies away to find herself Somewhere else where dreams don't stay on shelves She’s a school girl breaking out from these walls Living out loud instead of conforming small Between reality and fiction lays hope For someone who dares to b reality and fiction lays hope For someone who dares to break free like dope So let her dream as loud as she can It might be wild but do we really understand? That sometimes living in our heads can save us From drowning fast while trying not hazardous.
