Land Of Make-Believe Lyrics by Violet Rigby

2020

[Intro]
[Verse 1]
You know how to work a lock
You've cracked those a million times before
You've learned it from the punks in your block
'Cause there's nothing left to do when you're troubled and bored
You've been to all the castles and the forts of the world
You've been with the soldier boys and the beautiful girls
You've seen the life of the past and the future's inventions
It's just the present time that doesn't catch your attention
[Pre-Chorus 1]
You've lived a thousand lives and you took even more
And it all happened behind closed doors
I look into your eyes and it's clear what they say
"The cuffs and the chains in this prison
They make me feel safe"
[Chorus]
In a Land of Make-Believe
And fake relief
You've gone astray
Being on the run gets you high
I had a dream that one fine day
You would escape
This losing game
And there would be no need to hide
[Verse 2]
You know how to sail a ship
You've done it a million times before
You're a hero with a bag full of tricks
Putting spells on those who grudge while helping the poor
You've travelled to the stars, through time and space
You've been driving fancy cars winning race after race
With a horse and a saddle you've been over the hills
From the Wild West to the Storming of the Bastille
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Yeah you've lived a thousand lives and you saved even more
And it all happened behind closed doors
I look into your eyes and I see what they say
"The cuffs and the chains in this prison
They make me feel safe"
[Chorus]
In a Land of Make-Believe
And fake relief
You've gone astray
Being on the run gets you high
I had a dream that one fine day
You would escape
This losing game
And there would be no need to hide
[Bridge]
There's a life
There's a life for us to live
And a fear
A dreadful fear we gotta ditch
There's a life
There's a life for us to live
And a fear
A dreadful fear we gotta ditch
Na na naa na na
Na na naa na na na na
Na na naa na na
Na na naa na na na na
Na na naa na na
Na na naa na na na na
Na na naa na na
Na na naa na na na na
[Guitar Solo]
[Outro]
I feel safe inside the walls that I have built around me
But I'd be lying if I said it doesn't get lonely from time to time
But maybe it's not too late...
Ask me again later
