Sophia Jiang - Play Dragons Lyrics

Do you remember how we used to play dragons
In the great outdoors and

Did we really think that we could find heaven?
Someday when we'd get older

That day came soon
Now we're bad news whenever we're somewhere

They don't want us back
But we are fine with that

This world is bigger than a small town with a small town mind

And my mind is bigger than their small minds combined
Oh

I can't believe it sometimes
How the world seemed to change overnight

So why was the journey so long
And why am I so tired
Oh I'm so tired

They're standing across the room
Staring daggers again

All that they heard true
That I don't wanna be their friend
Cuz we're not children

But do you remember how we used to be dragons
In the great outdoors and

Did we really think that we could find heaven?
Someday when we'd get older

That day came soon
Now we're bad news whenever we're somewhere

They don't want us back
But it's too late for that

The world is bigger than a small town with a small town mind
And my mind is bigger than their small minds combined

You know what makes me so sad
How the time can erase all the past

And why is it always moving slow
But always moving fast?

The ones who succeed are ones who will want more
But the ones who want more will be torn

And the sweeter you are the more you'll be adored
Been that way since the day we were born
But we're. not. kids anymore

I really thought that I could be a dragon of this town
I didn't think that anyone would be dragging me down (dragging me down, down)

Remember we'd breathe smoke and flames from our tongues
And we'd swear on our hearts as one

We'd see heroes and villains in front
And say they're walking so we can run

And now the world is asleep and yet I will stay awake
And the world isn't really the same

Or maybe the world didn't change at all and maybe it's just me and my cynical ways

But I'm optimistic
That you're listening
To the hisses of my words

If I can't be the dragon of the town I'll be the dragon of the world

Do you remember how we used to fight dragons
In the great outdoors and

Someday I'm sure I will find heaven
In the great unknown and

I will see the day when there's
Another place for me somewhere

You will want me back
But I'm not coming back
