God Save The Dream

Nicklas Sahl

There once was a young boy

And he picked up a guitar

It was bigger than he was

When he played he felt

Like he never thought he'd feel

Like the songs became a shield

And it put 'em up on stages

Lit up a thousand faces

Oh it was magical he couldn't get enough

Then all the hungry vultures

Tempted and with indulgence

They took him under their wings

They talk about money talk about fame

Tell you you'll never make it

with your real name

Pointing at numbers on a wide screen

I pray they're never getting under your skin

God save the dream

God save the dream

But at once it all changed

And the faces turned to dust

There was no one he could trust

And the young boy he got lost

And never feeling good enough

He'd forgotten what it was

And now all the hungry vultures

Have found themselves another

To take in under their wings

They talk about money talk about fame

Tell you you'll never make it

with your real name

Pointing at numbers on a wide screen

I pray they're never getting under your skin

God save the dream

God save the dream

God save the dream

God save the dream

God save the dream

God save the dream
