When I Fall Asleep / My Letter Lyrics

Every day

I've been working from nine to five

Walking out the house

Getting in the car, begin to drive

People tell me Give up on your dreams

It's only possible in your head

But then I realize it's all kinda true

I'm still laying in my bed

So please don't wake me now

I know I'll figure it out

Somewhere and somehow

The times will change

And the scenes we see come crashing down

I know that it's a lot and you're still taking it in

I promise I will sit right here with you

You will see very soon that this dream will fly

Far from my mind, beyond our view

When I fall asleep

So now you see

This isn't just a vision in my head

It spans far beyond

Straight into the moonlit air

And forever now we will see

Just how far this dream will go

So come and follow me

Let's escape from this sorrow

So please don't wake me now

I know I'll figure it out

Somewhere and somehow

I know the times will change

And the scenes we see come crashing down

I know that it's a lot and you're still taking it in

I promise you I'll sit right here with you

And you will see very soon that this dream will fly

Far from my mind, beyond our view

When I fall asleep

This is my last year as a teenager

I want to show you all that I was here right now

It's 2022, singing straight from my soul

I'll scream with no fear

I don't care if the neighbors shout at me for being loud

I couldn't care less It's what I want to do

I love you all and I hope you all stay true

Because you're all my friends and I want you to be

Happy with your lives and be on the path to your joy

Like I was told I could do when I was just a boy

And I don't give a damn if no one ever hears this

It's the truth and nothing could ever beat that

And I will be here until the day that I die, writing a song for you

This is my letter to you whoever's listening right now

Whether you're in the next year or decade or century

You're eternally my best friend, even when I fall asleep

Even when I fall asleep

When I fall asleep
