You take a trip down memory lane
Back in the childhood daysWhen everyday was an innocent game
And life a fairy taleYou're a twenty first century girl
And hope is all you've gotYou place your bets on happy endings
You know you're dreaming
Just pretending you're notYou hideaway in colourfull dreams
From the dark of nightSick of man sick of extremes
And the world outsideYou face the day with false illusions
Made up dreams and blind confusionStep into it open up your eyes
Wake up to the real world
Sleeping beauty you still fantasize
Wake up to the real worldWhat's it like in in the world where you are
In your secret placeDo you feel love healin' your scars
Do you feel embraced'cause there your mind is free to wander
Where no one's gonna steal your thunderStep into it open up your eyes
Wake up to the real world
Sleeping beauty you still fantasize
Wake up to the real world
Face the music don't you realize
You're living in the real world
Sleeping beauty out of your disguise
Wake up to the real world ohOoh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ohYou're living in a strange reality no no
You only see what you wish to see awStep into it open up your eyes
Wake up to the real world
Sleeping beauty you still fantasize
Wake up to the real world
Face the music don't you realize
You're living in the real world
Sleeping beauty out of your disguiseWake up to the real world
Wake up to the real world
Wake up to the real world
