Lorie was a girl who built up all her world out of nothing She's got a bright mind and a smile but something in her eyes is fading She thought she could escape from the things in life she was afraid of She'd rather take a run than to take a quiet walk in the sun Waking up from a dream That wasn't quite what it seemed Waking up to begin A life out' this sunken dream She always tried to find a reason to deny the real thing Cause something in her mind has been locked from behind for ages She built a castle in the sky but a dreadful hollow sound became so loud That she couldn't hear a word from the friends who came around to save her Waking up from a dream That wasn't quite what it seemed Waking up to begin A life out of this sunken dream Waking up from a dream She suddenly realized she'd been holding her breath for too long And now she is emerging from a dive within the depths of a dark sea She's coming into sight, yearning for part of a good time Desire is the sign that made her leave illusions behind Waking up from a dream That wasn't quite what it seemed Waking up to begin A life out this sunken dream Waking up Waking up from a dream, a dream
