Ideal World

From Before the World Was Big2015

Written by Avery Tucker, Harmony

Lyrics

Ideal World

I thought I'd found myself today No one's noticed things are okay I took a walk down the street Found nothing beneath my feet I feel safest in knowing that I am true When I look in your eyes the idea of you Put me on a food stamp and a hallmark card Tranquilize me with your ideal world I was taught what to believe Now I'm only certain that no one is free Tranquilize me with your ideal world
