Wide awake
Many friends
Who cares what that one girl said?
We're here together
Here forever
Mom picked out clothes
Dad saves her shows
They both love her, and she knows
They're here forever
Here together

They sing her a lullaby of a thousand stars
Tell her to be happy where they are
She asks about her life, where's she going?
They just chuckle and say "hold on dear"

"Silly dreamer, go to sleep
It's okay just count your sheep
I know you're wide awake
But tomorrow is coming fast
Silly Dreamer, count the stars
Make a wish, but not too hard
Believe in yourself
And another day will come to pass"

Another day
Fade away
They say "who cares if we're late?"
It's not forever
We're not together
To many jocks
For knee high socks
Every heart is sealed by lock
It's not forever
We're not together

Parents in another fight, but it will pass
Life is a melody of broken glass
Wonders about life, where's she going?
Life laughs back at her, says "Hold on tight dear."

Stupid Dreamer, go to sleep
You don't work hard enough to earn your keep
I know I'm tired
But I can't stop the tears from coming
Stupid Dreamer, count the stars
Remember what you truly are
Believe in yourself
And another day will come to pass

Look to the sky
And see it, high
School isn't that great
She's trying her best
"That's what she said."
A raging sea
Of C and D
Keep your head above the waves
She's needing more rest
Her life is a mess

"I'm doing okay," is all she will say
Her best friend just forgot her birthday
Sixteen, seventeen, count the years
She only slept when she ran out of tears

Forgotten Dreamer, go to sleep
Everything's gone, nothing to keep
Daddy's gone and
Mommy's passed out on the couch
Forgotten Dreamer, count the stars
See how far away dreams are
They're shining so bright
I want that light

Tomorrow came
A few more days
Her memory will fade away
It wasn't time yet
Please don't forget
A simple note
Was all she wrote
Hidden under her old coat
Dear my reader
You didn't see her

Beautiful Dreamer
Don't give up
I'm sorry I wasn't enough
I had to now
Please live for the both of us
Beautiful Dreamer
Count your scars
They make up who you are
Love yourself
And another day will come to pass
