a girl who is living her dreams off
Lyrics
oh-oh, ah-ah, yeah
(hey, hey)
She paints her mornings with a cracked mug and a grin
Stole a postcard from a show and taped it on her skin
Three chords on a busted guitar, a rhythm in her bones
She learned to make a palace out of cardboard and phone
She pays rent with postcards, busking under blue noon skies
Sells little paper boats of lyrics, watch them float and rise
Neighbors clap when she plays, a stranger drops a coin
Every small applause a promise, every step a point
Some say she’s reckless, some say she’s brave
She says she’d rather sink than save, uh-huh
There’s a map drawn on the inside of her jacket
Every seam a memory, every seam a pocket
She lives off her dreams, she lives off her dreams (oh-oh)
She makes her mornings hum, she makes her midnight gleam (yeah)
She lives off her dreams, she lives off her dreams (la-la)
Spinning ticket stubs and starlight into things she keeps (oh-oh)
She lives off her dreams, she lives off her dreams (oh-oh)
She turns small wishes into a steady steady stream (uh-huh)
She lives off her dreams, she lives off her dreams (la-la)
Singing louder than the fear, watch how brave she seems (oh-oh)
There’s a studio on the floor where the light bends just right
A calendar with days circled like constellations at night
Phone full of missed calls, a stack of new designs
She trades a suit for denim and some midnight lines
She answers to the sunrise, not to a nine-to-five
Knows the weight of quiet mornings and the way they make her thrive
Her suitcase smells of coffee, of paint, of vinyl and glue
Every stamp a little victory, every street a new debut
People ask for caution, she gives them a soft smile
She says, "I’m saving up my stories, I’ll spend them in a while"
There’s a glitter in her pocket that she shakes when nights get cold
Like coins you can’t spend but you keep because they’re gold
She lives off her dreams, she lives off her dreams (oh-oh)
She makes her mornings hum, she makes her midnight gleam (yeah)
She lives off her dreams, she lives off her dreams (la-la)
Spinning ticket stubs and starlight into things she keeps (oh-oh)
She lives off her dreams, she lives off her dreams (oh-oh)
She turns small wishes into a steady steady stream (uh-huh)
She lives off her dreams, she lives off her dreams (la-la)
Singing louder than the fear, watch how brave she seems (oh-oh)
Night comes and she wonders, is this enough to hold?
Maps unfold in her pockets, every line a story told
Doubt visits like a neighbor, knocks three times then fades
She breathes in the paper, writes a chorus out of brave
(oh-oh) She’s not afraid of falling, she learned to fly on crumbs
, every scar becomes a drum
Keep your calendars and caution, keep your perfect plans
She’ll buy a one-way ticket with the courage in her hands
