Lyrics
(V1)
In the stillness of the night,
Beneath the vast, celestial light,
My hopes and dreams ever bright,
It all feels right, staring up at night
(This isn't me)
I dreamt of sky watching, an astronomer,
Finding galaxies and stars, so much to learn.
Looking up at the sky, its all just a blur,
And discovering new life, A celestial explorer
but this isn't me (this isn't me)
[Chorus]
Oh the dreams I held, now distant and cold,
Yearning for paths, never to unfold.
Oh the dreams I chased, now lost at sea,
Echoes of hopes, this isn't me.
Oh the dreams I shared, buried deep within,
Promises of joy, now wearing thin.
Oh the dreams that faded, I want to sleep,
Silent whispers, this isn't me.
Ooh-oh woah
But this isn't me
(Isn't me, isn't me)
(V2)
Then called the ancient call of Earth,
In the depths of history's birth.
A paleontologist, in endless mirth,
Exploring through times endless girth
(This isn't me)
Digging up dinos, in worlds that died.
Shedding light on the dreams that thrived
Echoes of the past, receding like the tide
Allowing me to be your guide
but this isn't me (this isn't me)
[Chorus]
Oh the dreams I held, now distant and cold,
Yearning for paths, never to unfold.
Oh the dreams I chased, now lost at sea,
Echoes of hopes, this isn't me.
Oh the dreams I shared, buried deep within,
Promises of joy, now wearing thin.
Oh the dreams that faded, I want to sleep,
Silent whispers, this isn't me.
Ooh-oh woah
But this isn't me
(Isn't me, isn't me)
(V3)
Then whispered the call of the wild,
In nature's arms, where dreams compile.
A biologist, I'd long to be,
Studying creatures, wild and free.
From the forest floor to the canopy high,
In the skies above, where birds fly.
In the depths of oceans, dark and deep,
Where secrets of life, in silence, keep.
Exploring realms, both near and far,
In each creature, a guiding star.
but this isn't me (this isn't me)
[Chorus]
Oh the dreams I held, now distant and cold,
Yearning for paths, never to unfold.
Oh the dreams I chased, now lost at sea,
Echoes of hopes, this isn't me.
Oh the dreams I shared, buried deep within,
Promises of joy, now wearing thin.
Oh the dreams that faded, I want to sleep,
Silent whispers, this isn't me.
Ooh-oh woah
But this isn't me
(Isn't me, isn't me)
Oh the dreams that faded, I want to sleep,
Silent whispers, this isn't me
Ooh-oh woah
Ooh-oh woah
but this isn't me (this isn't me)
(Bridge)
And amidst the dreams of science and lore,
Lies a yearning for something more.
To make music, to paint the sky,
Or in the spotlight, let dreams fly.
To stream and play, in pixels gleam,
Or in words, weave a timeless theme.
To teach the young, to set them free,
Nothing tells me who I'm supposed to be.
[Chorus]
Oh the dreams I held, now distant and cold,
Yearning for paths, never to unfold.
Oh the dreams I chased, now lost at sea,
Echoes of hopes, this isn't me.
Oh the dreams I shared, buried deep within,
Promises of joy, now wearing thin.
Oh the dreams that faded, I want to sleep,
Silent whispers, this isn't me.
Ooh-oh woah
But this isn't me
(Isn't me, isn't me)
Oh the dreams I chased, now lost at sea,
Echoes of hopes, this isn't me.
Oh the dreams I shared, buried deep within,
Promises of joy, now wearing thin.
Oh the dreams that faded, I want to sleep,
Silent whispers, this isn't me.
[Chorus]
Oh the dreams I held, now distant and cold,
Yearning for paths, never to unfold.
Oh the dreams I chased, now lost at sea,
Echoes of hopes, this isn't me.
Oh the dreams I shared, buried deep within,
Promises of joy, now wearing thin.
Oh the dreams that faded, I want to sleep,
Silent whispers, this isn't me.
Ooh-oh woah
But this isn't me
(Isn't me, isn't me)
Just tell me who the hell I'm supposed to be
