Sometimes I need an escape from my reality
Conscious to the sub, lies a fine line in between
I love to live on this edge
Cause theres my fantasy just over the ledge

And my mind shifts back and forth
Take me to wonderland, my foot to the pedal to the floor
This is what you do
And this is who you are

I except this gift of creation
Hone in on your gift son and it will take you far

So I paint and draw within my head
And I study the world till I lay down to bed
Then it hits me soon enough
My realites melt to dreams and stuff

Don't tell me I'm crazy man
My roots are planted see and so I stand
My life is vibrant as it is green and free
Give me the sun and water and I'm the strongest tree.

And I perch up high
Just over the heavens
If I had wings I would fly
Doing it again and again

I been through some rough times and weathered the storms
But that's what life is about boy and I'll go through it some more
Just stay strong and don't give way
You might lose a friend or two as they stray

But the true ones, they'll stick to the ground
We'll have a reunion of laughter and good times all round

And that's when I won't need to escape my reality
As I'll be really.........truly living a dream
