Drop Everything And Start Running Lyrics by Niko

Even In Dreams

2017

[Verse 1]
That look on your face
Tells me you’re so full of it
Just like the words that you say
Barely fall out of your lips
You know it’s painful
Watching you just lie to yourself
I still see something there
Inside of the shell
[Pre Chorus 1]
You’ve changed
You’re not the person that I used to know
[Chorus]
We are what we choose to be
Right now I’m choosing to be your friend
This is not how it ends for you
We are not what we’re expected to be
Your aspirations are broken
Dreams will not stay unspoken tonight
[Verse 2]
Every time you drink too much
You remember who you are
You stare into your bloodshot eyes
In the mirror of the bathroom at the bar
Promises we make in silence to ourselves
We’ve traded in our lives for something else
[Pre Chorus 2]
You know I love you
And I’d trust you with my life
Just not your own
[Chorus 2]
We are what we choose to be
Right now I’m choosing to call you out
You’re gonna thank me 10 years from now
We are not what we’re expected to be
We are afraid for our safety
Trade our freedom for comfort and lies
[Bridge]
Tell me you’re afraid
What we need more now than anything
Is honesty and openness
Just like when we were kids
Everything I learned in time
Is only leaving us behind
The only thing I really learned
Is how to be someone else
[Chorus 3]
We are not what we’re expected to be
Your aspirations are broken
Dreams will not stay unspoken tonight
