Is This a Dream? - Badly Drawn Boy

Welcome to the tragedy

It’s not the way it’s supposed to be, I know

And now I’m seeing things

Saw something moving under your skin

You can talk to animals

Doolittle or do nothing at all

I’m a melted snowman

Tried to crack the codes, they all came back wrong

It just took too long

You find it comical

Not in a way that makes you laugh

I’m not a killer

You could bring out the killer in me

Take a snapshot

What’s going on in this world, will only get you down

Find the meaning

Is this a dream?

It’s like a disease

That we all catch in our sleep

Invisible dream

I need electronic eyeballs

Just to see past the truth

And give me some love

Your heart starts beating to the sound of your dreams

I need some love

And a hot air balloon, so we can make our escape

I’m running out of caviar

Had to sell the super car, oh no

Thanks Mr Andrews

For giving me the big red book of my life

In this search for freedom

There’s always somebody trying to pin you to the wall

Today’s a good day

Found a letter from Bono, not seen in years

So just dry those tears

Is this a dream?

It’s like a disease

That we all catch in our sleep

Am I in your dream?

We gotta stop waiting for the apples to fall

And give me some love

I need electronic eyeballs

Just to see past the truth

And give me some blood

Your heart starts beating to the sound of your dreams

Gather up all your tear drops

Gather up all your tear drops

Gather up all your tear drops

Pour them on me…

Is this a dream?

Like a chronic disease

That we all catch in our sleep

And if god is real

We gotta just stop blaming him when things go wrong

And show me some love

When the whole thing pops

You’ll be the sole survivor

I need your blood

And a hot air balloon, to make my arrival…
