Distorted Light Beam (Reprise)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It isn't enough to start a riot
Distort the light beam until I like me
It isn't enough if this is real life
I'll stick to dreaming, so come see what I see
Feeling like if this is life
I'm choosing fiction
Call it faith, call it fame
The fantasy's the same, uh
When I'm dreaming tonight, I can do anything
When I'm dreaming tonight, I can go anywhere
When I'm dreaming tonight, I can be anyone
So, don't wake me up, don't wake me up
When I'm dreaming tonight, I can do anything
When I'm dreaming tonight, I can go anywhere
When I'm dreaming tonight, I can be anyone
So, don't wake me up, don't wake me up
Levelling up
Delete my history
Choose how you see me
And the future's easier
Levelling up
In here, I'm winning
Defeat the big boss
Game over, your loss
Feeling like if this is life
I'm choosing fiction, uh
Call it faith, call it fame
The fantasy's the same, oh
When I'm dreaming tonight, I can do anything
When I'm dreaming tonight, I can go anywhere
When I'm dreaming tonight, I can be anyone
So, don't wake me up, don't wake me up
When I'm dreaming tonight, I can do anything
When I'm dreaming tonight, I can go anywhere
When I'm dreaming tonight, I can be anyone
So, don't wake me up, don't wake me up
Oh, will I ever?
Oh, will I ever?
Oh, will I ever wake up?
Hope I never wake up
I never get tired, no, no, no-no-no
No, no, no-no-no
When I'm dreaming tonight, I can do anything
When I'm dreaming tonight, I can go anywhere
When I'm dreaming tonight, I can be anyone
So, don't wake me up, don't wake me up — oh
When I'm dreaming tonight, I can do anything
When I'm dreaming tonight, I can go anywhere
When I'm dreaming tonight, I can be anyone
So, don't wake me up, don't wake me up
When I'm dreaming tonight, I can do anything
When I'm dreaming tonight, I can go anywhere
When I'm dreaming tonight, I can be anyone
So, don't wake me up, don't wake me up
And when I'm dreaming, I can do anything
So, here I go, oh-oh
Here I go
So, here I go, oh, oh-oh
