lyrics

Close your eyes, look into the dark
Search your mind for the spark of life
That you've lost very deep inside
Breathe in the air, remember who you are
You're more than a speck of dust on the tail of a shooting star
Come away with me to an imaginary time
It's a place where we can hit rewind.

Too fast they sucked you into this game they call reality
Too slow were you to react, and now your mind's in slavery
Don't become a clone, think on your own
In this life you only get one try
Better do it your own way

Imaginary Day
We want it to come and take us away.

Open your eyes again, look into the light
No longer blinded by reality
You see with perfect sight.
You're gonna make a change, you'll never walk the same
Cause in the back of your mind you can always find
An image of what life could be

Imaginary Day
We want it to come and take us away

Finally you freed yourself from the chains
And you look down on their poor crying brains
And from way up in the sky
You have the power to ask "why?"
Cause you are free, and you can see
Your dreams become reality
And you're not so far from the shooting star
That you wished would take you away.

Imaginary Day
We want it to come and take us away
Imaginary Day
Now you see that it's not very far away
Imaginary Day
It's only imaginary if you want it that way
