Paint a moustache on the Mona Lisa
ride a Harley through the heart of danger
pick up a pen and fight a war for the right to dream

I was seventeen

Give up my house, sleep for nights on concrete
meditate with all the b__s on Vine Street
no more running, no more hiding in the house of the dead
I think I'll grow some dreads

I believe in the sanctity of dreams
no more running from these masqueraders
I believe that society will never dream like me

I dream of loving, of the empty graveyard
I dream of Vegas and the transcendental wildcard
a place where noone waits to die before they go into the light

and just the blind have sight

I follow nothing but the compass of my instinct
no matter where it leads, I know it will take me to the brink
and leave me there by myself and all alone with my dreams

can you hear my scream?

I believe in the sanctity of dreams
no more running from these masqueraders
I believe that society will never dream like me
never dream like me
society will never dream like me
never dream like me

I believe in the sanctity of dreams
no more running from these masqueraders
I believe that society will never dream like me

oh oh

I believe in the sanctity of dreams
no more running from these masqueraders
I believe that society will never dream like me
never dream like me
society
society
will never dream like me
society
society
society
will never dream like me
