Lyrics

What if you live

Contemplating the possibilities of living

And what if you die

Reflecting on the consequences of death

What if you go from show to show

Considering a life filled with various experiences or performances

And it goes right

Pondering success and positive outcomes

And what if it's real

Questioning the authenticity of experiences

Or is it a lie

Exploring the possibility of deception or falsehood

What if she leaves

Contemplating the potential of a partner leaving

And what if she cheats

Considering the possibility of infidelity by a partner

And what if she cries

Reflecting on a partner's emotional pain and tears

And what are the dreams

Questioning and examining one's own aspirations and desires

That you set aside

Identifying and acknowledging personal dreams

Home alone up on the phone

Being alone at home, reaching out for support via phone

To a life line

Seeking a connection or guidance during challenging times

Born to dream

Expressing an innate inclination towards dreaming

Not born to die

Affirming a preference for a life driven by dreams rather than succumbing to death

And every time you start to climb

Justifying and rationalizing the pursuit of dreams

You Justify

Believing in the justification each time one begins to ascend towards their dreams

Born to dream a dream I got

Expressing the possession of a dream within oneself

It all inside of me I got

Acknowledging the internalization of dreams

Born to dream a dream that I got

Affirming the presence of a dream within one's being

It all inside of me

Emphasizing the internal nature of personal dreams

I got dreams

Declaring the possession of dreams

What if you fail

Considering the possibility of failure

Then what if you try

Contemplating the importance of making an effort despite potential failure

What if you breathe

Reflecting on the act of breathing, a fundamental aspect of life

And what if you bleed

Considering the potential for physical and emotional wounds

And what if you cry

Contemplating personal moments of sadness and tears

What are the dreams

Identifying and revisiting dreams that have been set aside

That you set aside

Recalling and questioning the aspirations that have been neglected

Home alone up on the phone

Being alone and reaching out for support via phone, repeating the theme

To a life line

Seeking a connection or guidance during challenging times, repeating the theme

Born to dream

Expressing the inherent inclination to dream

Not born to die

Affirming a preference for a life driven by dreams over succumbing to death, repeating the theme

And every time you start to climb

Justifying and rationalizing the pursuit of dreams, repeating the theme

You Justify

Believing in the justification each time one begins to ascend towards their dreams, repeating the theme

Born to dream a dream that I got

Expressing the possession of a dream within oneself, repeating the theme

It all inside of me I got

Acknowledging the internalization of dreams, repeating the theme

Born to dreams dream that I got

Affirming the presence of a dream within one's being, repeating the theme

It all inside of me

Emphasizing the internal nature of personal dreams, repeating the theme

I got dreams

Declaring the possession of dreams, repeating the theme
