lyrics

Behind a rock, bottom of a hill
Feelin doomed to a Sisyphus climb
Fool's errand, futile task
Start to ask myself why try

I fell asleep in a dream
Forgot that I could lucidly leave the realm
Felt something inside me, sing

You gotta voice
Why don't ya use it
You gotta choice
So why don't ya choose it
There's a big ol' world out there
So dream it up, step out and do it

Got tangled up in another's world
Where the rules constantly change
Square to square, no way out
Til off with his head, said the Queen

I fell asleep in a dream
Forgot that I could walk away from the game
I didn't want to play anyway

You gotta voice
Why don't ya use it
You gotta choice
So why don't ya choose it
There's a big ol' world out there
So dream it up, step out and do it

Shooting cannonballs to try to keep me
From cloud skipping to bend my fiction
Voices from without but often from within
Causing friction, but you're not welcome here anymore
If you don't like well there's the door

I gotta voice
And I'm gonna use it
I gotta choice
And I'm gonna choose it
There's a big ol' world out there
So dream it up, step out and do it
