Bursting up above
Emerging from above
A silouhette, a dove
A silhouette, a dove
All the beauty rising
All the beauty ascending
Hiding any traces of the burden
Concealing any signs of the load
We left behind
Living in a daydream by design
Ashes in the ground
Ashes on the ground
Daisies grow around
Daisies blooming all around
Other things will fall back
Other things will retreat
Half a block from where your dreams were bound
Half a block from where your dreams were meant to meet
Just turn around
Living in a daydream by design
Changing like the seasons and the fashions
Fragile hearts of porcelain
All the vintage photographs and captions
Scrawled across the sun
A covenant of one
Open up our eyes
The future's in disguise
In the hobo jungle
Roaming like two moons up in the sky
We're gettin' by just fine
Living in a daydream by design
Changing like the seasons and the fashions
Fragile hearts of porcelain
All the vintage photographs and captions
Scrawled across the sun
A covenant of one
Open up our eyes
The future's in disguise
In the hobo jungle
Roaming like two moons up in the sky
We're gettin' by just fine
Living in a daydream by design
Living in a daydream by design
