Lyrics of How to Dream by Ryan Caraveo
There’s A Forcefield Wherever I Go
Got A Pearlescent Glow, From Head To Toe
Close My Eyes When They Screamin’
I Can’t Feel Pain Here In The Dreamland
I’m With My Imaginary Friends
Under Pomegranate Skies With The Raspberry Blend
I’m Not Gonna Smile Through The Sadness Again
If I Stay Here Forever I Don’t Have To Pretend
It’s All Good In My Head
It’s All Good In My Head
I Don’t Know How To Deal But This Is How To Dream
Mmmm Mmm Mmm Mmmm Mm Mmm Mmm Mm Mmm
Mmmm Mmm Mmm Mmmm Mm Mmm Mmm Mm Mmm
I’ma Barrel Through The Sky, I’ma Catapult Now
In My Bulletproof Cape And My Shatterproof Crown
If You Can See It Then I’m Proud Of You, Wow
’cause You Can’t Imagine This Unless You Had To Know How
My Hug Was A Belt, My Love Never Felt Right
Punishment Is The Only Time I Ever Got Held Tight
If My Inner Voice Sounds Just What He Yelled Like
How You Expect Me To Talk To Myself Nice?
I’m With My Imaginary Friends
Under Pomegranate Skies With The Raspberry Blend
I’m Not Gonna Smile Through The Sadness Again
If I Stay Here Forever I Don’t Have To Pretend
It’s All Good In My Head
It’s All Good In My Head
I Don’t Know How To Deal But This Is How To Dream
Mmmm Mmm Mmm Mmmm Mm Mmm Mmm Mm Mmm
Mmmm Mmm Mmm Mmmm Mm Mmm Mmm Mm Mmm
You Don’t Have To See This, Go To Sleep, You Shouldn’t Be Awake
Close Your Eyes And Rest Your Head, Lil Baby Boy, Just Dream Away
You Can Make Up Anything, You Don’t Have To Be Afraid
If You Just Keep Dreamin’ Then I Promise It’ll Be Okay
You Don’t Have To See This, Go To Sleep, You Shouldn’t Be Awake
Close Your Eyes And Rest Your Head, Lil Baby Boy, Just Dream Away
You Can Make Up Anything, You Don’t Have To Be Afraid
I Don’t Know How To Deal But This Is How To Dream
Mmmm Mmm Mmm Mmmm Mm Mmm Mmm Mm Mmm
Mmmm Mmm Mmm Mmmm Mm Mmm Mmm Mm Mmm
