lyrics

I remember back when I was young
A world so vast but endless landscapes fit within my palm
My eyes were open wide and I could see the sun
Tabula rasa was my name and Experience my pen

Can’t you see it’s all just a Childhood Forest?
I think I lost myself somewhere among the trees

Well I’ve been living all these years but can you tell me
Were these 20 the best? Well what are the rest?
An endless journey to death?
I got all this breath
I need to get off my chest
And live out the rest of my life
Before it passes me by

I’m not wrong, your system’s flawed
I just don’t bow down to your God
I am human, what are you?
A product of the system that brought me to you

Can’t you see it’s all just a Childhood Forest?
We’ve all lost ourselves somewhere among the trees

But this is just a dream…
It’s just a dream, it’s just a dream
It’s just a dream, it’s just a dream
It’s just a dream, it’s just a dream
It’s just a dream, it’s just a dream
