Lyrics

Daydream

[Verse]

My daydream seems as one inside of you

Though it seems hard to reach through this life

You're blue and hopeless life

My daydream screams bitter ’til the end

The love I share, true, selfish to the heart

My heart, my sacred heart

[Chorus]

My daydream, dream

My daydream

My daydream, dream

My daydream

[Outro]

I'm going crazy

I'm going crazy

I don't want feelings

Your feelings

I have gone crazy

Motherfucking crazy

I have gone
