What did I do
To deserve all this pain
Am I destined
Just to always hurt
Or am I just insane
Why does everyone hate me
Am I better off in the dirt

There placid little faces
Are covered by pretty masks
It hides their true disgraces
But no one ever asks
They're as cruel as can be
Can't anybody see
That I was born into-
A forgotten reality

My words are never right
And I always lose the fight
I stumble all about
'Cause I can't find the light
So my heart's in the dark
Pitch-black emptiness

Beneath this cathedral arc
I lay my head to sleep
On the shards of pleasant dreams
That I could never keep
I hope for better times
Joy I never felt
But these silly fantasies
Fade into the trees

As I take a breath
Of the gloomy air
A voice begins to echo
But nobody's there
I fall into a slumber
And journey to a place
Where everyone will care
And we're all proud to be
A single human race
A place among the clouds
That drifts through my mind
But when I awake
It's a place that I can't find

I go there every night
To try escape the pain
In my little world
Where I never see the rain
In my own little world
Where everything is good
In my own little world
Where no one ever hurts
And no one ever could
In my own little world
In my little world
In my own little world
My one happy place
In my little world
My own little world
Where there's always
A smile on my face

The place stays in my dreams
Well, at least that's how it seems
As traverse the days
Through all the Octobers and the Mays
Paying the price
That no one else ever pays
When the burden's always heavy
No matter how much it weighs
I hold on to my tiny silver thread
That reminds me of the world
That only exists inside my head

While everyone's a fake
And there is less to give
Than there is to take
Than go ahead and quit
Your silly little career
And join me in my head
And we will dissappear
We'll leave all the agony
Back where it belongs
Because as long as we're in here
We won't have anything to fear

In my little world
In my own little world
The only thing that's real
Is what we want to feel
And nothing's every wrong
And no one's ever right
There's nothing to argue about
And there's no reason to fight
There's no such thing as war
And hearts never break
And no one ever dies
For someone elses sake

So come and join me
In my little world
In my own little world
My one happy place
In my little world
In my own little world
Where there's always
A smile on my face

In my little world
In my own little world
My one happy place
In my little world
In my own little world
Where there's always
A smile on my face

In my little world
In my own little world
My own little world
That I can not replace
In my little world
In my own little world
That I can not replace
In my little world
My own little world
My little world
That I can not replace...
