Fantasisin' about the future
Holdin’ on to the front of the past
Hypnotised by the lure
It pulls me in sometimes, but never lasts
Somewhere in between
My reality and my dreams
Somehow it's above them both
Some days, so far below

When I'm occupied
I don’t have to think to breathe
As long as I'm makin' better memories
'Cause these things last as far as I can see
When I'm up at night
And I'm sinkin' in these sheets
And thinkin' of these memories
Yeah, these things last as far as I can see

This is how it works, this is how I learn
I’ve got dime to make for when I’ve got time to burn
I've got things to do and I’ve got things to see
Runnin' on my own time, my imagination's mine
This place is not the world, the world's outside

When I’m occupied
I don't have to think to breathe
As long as we're makin' better memories
'Cause these things last as far as I can see
When I'm up at night
And I'm sinkin' in these sheets
And thinkin' of these memories
Yeah, these things last as far as I can see

When I'm occupied
I don't have to think to breathe
As long as I'm makin' better memories
'Cause these things last as far as I can see
When I'm up at night
And I'm sinkin' in these sheets
And thinkin' of these memories
Yeah, these things last as far as I can see
