Reverie Lyrics

[Chorus]
We are in a reverie
And everything you thought you know
Isn't what it seems
Only truth, truth will set you free
And I will never lie to you
So listen close to me

[Verse 1]
We've been eating these lies
And they've been feeding us all lies
What happened to our blue skies?

Yo, they be getting us young, learn to love institution
This new world has begun

[Verse 2]
And we spend every day
Worrying 'bout the same shit, how am I gonna make it?
Every day reading from the same script
People lyin' down, we can change it
, face it
This ain't where we're supposed to be, this is reverie

[Chorus]
We are in a reverie
And everything you thought you know
Isn't what it seems
Only truth, truth will set you free
And I will never lie to you
So listen close to me
[Bridge]
Hear my heartbeat, feel I'm real and
Sweetly singing, feed me diamonds
Truth is not the same as silence
Follow me towards these horizons

[Chorus]
We are in a reverie
And everything you thought you know
Isn't what it seems
Only truth, truth will set you free
And I will never lie to you
So listen close to me

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
