If Joy Lives in Dreams
演唱：Meowtastic Studio(Verse 1)
I wake to gray skies in my mind
Sunlight never seems to find
The cracks inside my hollow chest
Where hope once tried to make a nest
I smile so no one sees the flood
But I'm drowning quiet in my blood
And every breath feels like a war
What am I even fighting for?
(Pre-Chorus)
They say hold on, it gets better
But what if better never comes?
(Chorus)
If joy lives in dreams
Then let me sleep eternally
Where pain can’t find, and ghosts don’t scream
Where I’m not broken endlessly
If peace is somewhere I can’t feel
Then close my eyes, and make it real
If heaven’s not for me to see
Then let me dream
And set me free
(Verse 2)
I gave my all, but it got lost
Love like mine comes at a cost
And now I wander through the haze
Of empty nights and wasted days
No one hears the silent cry
That echoes every time I try
To wear this mask, pretend I’m fine
But truth is bleeding down my spine
(Pre-Chorus)
They say I matter, say I’m strong
But this world feels so damn wrong
(Chorus)
If joy lives in dreams
Then let me sleep eternally
Where I can breathe, where I can be
Without this weight suffocating me
If light is something I can’t find
Then let me leave this ache behind
If love was never meant for me
Then let me dream
And set me free
(Bridge – Whispered / Soft-Spoken)
I’m not asking for goodbye
Just a place where I can cry
Without shame, without fear
Where I can finally disappear
(Final Chorus – Raw & Emotional)
If joy lives in dreams
Then lay me down, don’t wake me up
No more pretending, no more luck
I gave it all — it wasn’t enough
If dreams are where I’m truly whole
Then let them swallow up my soul
If I can’t find a place to be
Then let me dream
And set me free
(Outro – fading, broken voice)
Let me dream...
Let me sleep...
Let me be...
Finally... free.
