Array ( [sid] => 87807 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Dream It Like You Mean It [time] => 2005-03-17 18:51:43 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Why would you
Want to follow the crowd?
Why not push against them
And go the other way?

If everyone goes
In one direction
No one knows what’s out there
If no one goes astray

Fate brought you this far
So don’t turn around
I can see bruises
From when you hit the ground

It’s gonna take time
And it won’t be all fun
But one day you’ll smile
Looking back at what you’ve done

Scream, scream it like you mean it
Yell at the top of your lungs,
“I won’t let this stop me!”
Dream, dream it like you mean it
Go for the things you love
And not what they tell you to do

I know that it’s hard
And it might not seem worth it
It would be easier
To live in black and white

But if you do that
You’ll regret it someday
So live in the rainbow
Stand up and fight

You might become poor
Or maybe unloved
And if it doesn’t work out
You’ll want to give up

But even when you’re older
Just take a risk
Follow your heart
Whether you hit or miss

Scream, scream it like you mean it
Yell at the top of your lungs,
“I won’t let this stop me!”
Dream, dream it like you mean it
Go for the things you love
And not what they tell you to do

Others’ dreams are not yours
So go follow your own course
I know you’ll win all your wars
If you dream it like you mean it

Scream, scream it like you mean it
Yell at the top of your lungs,
“I won’t let this stop me!”
Dream, dream it like you mean it
Go for the things you love
And not what they tell you to do [comments] => 4 [counter] => 181 [topic] => 34 [informant] => Ataraxia [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SongLyrics )
Dream It Like You Mean It

Why would you
Want to follow the crowd?
Why not push against them
And go the other way?

If everyone goes
In one direction
No one knows what’s out there
If no one goes astray

Fate brought you this far
So don’t turn around
I can see bruises
From when you hit the ground

It’s gonna take time
And it won’t be all fun
But one day you’ll smile
Looking back at what you’ve done

Scream, scream it like you mean it
Yell at the top of your lungs,
“I won’t let this stop me!”
Dream, dream it like you mean it
Go for the things you love
And not what they tell you to do

I know that it’s hard
And it might not seem worth it
It would be easier
To live in black and white

But if you do that
You’ll regret it someday
So live in the rainbow
Stand up and fight

You might become poor
Or maybe unloved
And if it doesn’t work out
You’ll want to give up

But even when you’re older
Just take a risk
Follow your heart
Whether you hit or miss

Scream, scream it like you mean it
Yell at the top of your lungs,
“I won’t let this stop me!”
Dream, dream it like you mean it
Go for the things you love
And not what they tell you to do

Others’ dreams are not yours
So go follow your own course
I know you’ll win all your wars
If you dream it like you mean it

Scream, scream it like you mean it
Yell at the top of your lungs,
“I won’t let this stop me!”
Dream, dream it like you mean it
Go for the things you love
And not what they tell you to do
