All the time [this is the third song I have done about when I was 14 tonight
You can see I was having a rough time rough year
Rough year
Especially since I looked about 11 when I was 14]
I was having nightmares
All the time
But he was my guide
To my dreamworld
To my dreamworld
To my dreamworld
I was 14
Dali's paintings opened doors for me
And the sky, so terrifying
Gave me the sign
To my dreamworld
To my dreamworld
To my dreamworld
When I was 14 and depressed
Dali said freedom
In the sky
He was my guide
To my dreamworld
To my dreamworld
To my dreamworld
The inside and outside feeling
Underground and above ground at the same time
And the skies, so terrifying
Gave me the sign
To my dreamworld
To my dreamworld
To my dreamworld
