Hold back when you fantasize
You might go too far and build a life
You can't step away from
Imagination is a sacred drug

In my dreams we're paralyzed
We keep getting stuck at a red light
And we talk like there's no goodbye
Forever with you is a day and night

And I know now not to go out
Past the borderline
I leave the make-believe behind
Just a reverie
A little piece of me
But never mind
My love for you is at the start and the end of time

Hold back when you're in my mind
You can't keep showing up every single night
I try not to start a fight
It's an illusion but he holds me right

Once you start feeding into the light
You'll believe anything to pass the time
And I don't wanna hurt you tonight
But I wake up wishing for a different life

And I know now just to stay down
To keep myself alive
I leave the fantasy behind
Just a reverie taking over me
So I let it die
My love for you is at the start and the end of time

Ah-aah
Ah-aah, ah-aah, ah-ah
Ah-aah, ah-aah, ah-aah

And the funny thing is I couldn't stop it
Had a feeling it would end back in August
How could I pretend that you'd want me?
How could I believe what you told me?

And the truth is there was no lost potential
You were a scapegoat for my life to unravel
It's just a dream, don't you get it?
It's all a dream, just forget it

(Ah-aah)
(Ah-aah, ah-aah, ah-ah)
(Ah-aah, ah-aah, ah-aah)
