Lyrics
There's a dream I have sometimes late at night
Reflecting on a recurring dream experienced late at night.
When a wishing star is my only light
Describing a scenario where a wishing star is the sole source of light.
And it's not very realistic I know
Acknowledging that the dream might not be realistic.
To want to take the world on alone
Expressing a desire to take on the world alone.
So I could stay here living life the same
Contemplating staying in the current situation.
But something out there calls my name
Feeling drawn by something outside of the current life.
And maybe it's wrong to want to leave this place
Questioning the morality of wanting to leave.
But there's dreams I have that I've just gotta chase
Feeling compelled to pursue personal dreams despite conflicting emotions.
So what if I just pack my bags one day
Pondering the idea of leaving abruptly.
Kiss this town goodbye and find my way
Considering leaving the current place and finding a new path.
Leave the past behind
Desiring to leave past experiences behind.
Start a new life
Yearning for a fresh start in life.
Where no one knows my name
Seeking anonymity in a new environment.
Yeah somedays I just wanna run away
Expressing a recurrent desire to escape from reality.
In this dream I have I go somewhere new
Imagining going to a different place in the dream.
Where the places don't remind me of you
Desiring to escape reminders of past experiences.
And the memories don't mess with my head
Avoiding memories that cause emotional distress.
'Cause I'm busy making new ones instead
Focusing on creating new, positive memories.
And I'm making plans that I want to do
Planning personal goals instead of fulfilling others' expectations.
Instead of things you wanted me to
Rejecting previously imposed desires in favor of personal aspirations.
So when I see that star I don't wish too hard
Choosing not to wish excessively but rather focusing on creativity.
I just find a pen and pick up my guitar
Opting to create instead of just wishing for change.
So what if I just pack my bags one day
Repeating the contemplation of leaving abruptly.
Kiss this town goodbye and find my way
Considering departing from the current place for personal growth.
Leave the past behind
Desiring to leave past experiences and start anew.
Start a new life
Longing for a fresh start and anonymity.
Where no one knows my name
Repeated desire for escape and starting afresh.
Yeah somedays I just wanna run away
Recurring feeling of wanting to escape reality.
Looking at my future, I forget about my past
Considering the future without dwelling on the past.
Is there a way that I could somehow make that feeling last
Seeking to sustain the feeling of optimism and renewal.
Leave the heartbreak here
Desiring to leave behind emotional pain.
And face my fears
Confronting fears and striving for positive experiences.
Make some better memories
Aspiring to create happier memories.
I know I'm fantasizing what it's like to leave
Awareness of the idealized nature of leaving.
But what if I just pack my bags one day
Repeating the contemplation of leaving abruptly.
Kiss this town goodbye and find my way
Considering leaving behind the current life for a new one.
Leave the past behind
Desiring to move on from past experiences.
Start a new life
Yearning for a fresh start and anonymity once more.
Where no one knows my name
Emphasizing the desire for anonymity in a new place.
Board a train somewhere
Considering a physical departure and change in appearance.
And cut my hair
Symbolic change as a part of embracing the new life.
No nothing stays the same
Emphasizing the inevitability of change.
Yeah, sometimes I see that star up in its place
Seeing the wishing star and feeling the urge to escape.
And I just wanna run away
Reaffirming the recurring desire to run away from reality.
