I want to work make ideas real
Sometimes far-fetched but I still fell
That we could try and maybe they
Would just work out

But you say no don't even try
I ask but you don't know why
You just frown and shoot me down
Yeah you're so smart

Everyone's so cynical
Can't feel a thing so logical
Can't make a point, they intellectualise
Everything
I believe in naivety
Don't think it's dumb
Believe in dreams and silly schemes
Still human
I wish I was, and not numb
But I feel myself getting numb...

I gotta dream and you can't say
That it's not right and it's okay
To just give up

But you say no don't even try
I ask but you don't know why
You just frown and shoot me down
Yeah you're so smart

People say so condescending
"Your idealism is amusing"
But I say being alive is choosing
To not give up
