Viewing lyrics for Dreaming Out Loud by John David Schrader.

Why does this line never move - smile while our dreams come unglued
It seems to dream is just for kids - but they fall to the side of the highest bid

You watch the world just pass you by - fear sometimes smears itself to my side
I can you just don’t understand - so don’t waste my time let go of my hand

One little man with a little pen - little words stick every now and then
I just can’t shake it, I’m mad as hell - he doesn’t know this place, he doesn’t know it’s smell

Build
If it’s all the same to you - I’m more than a name to you

CHORUS
Even if these shoes fit your feet - you haven’t danced down my street - no dancing allowed
I scream out my name - they think that I’m insane - for dreaming out loud

It’s all in the words, just listen close - what’s not contagious hurts the most
I want to blame it all on you - but I don’t dare ‘cause you know the truth

I crush these beads in my fist - can he taste the fear in my chest
Does everyone’s hell feel the same - does heaven hide behind a different name

I break my back for a little peace - but trip on the rush for sweet release
You bet your ass I’ve got a chip - but it’s sure as hell no ego trip

Build
You don’t mean a thing to me - why don’t you sing to me

REPEAT CHORUS

Bridge
I wanna fall all into you - I don’t wanna crawl….
