lyrics
My life is so exciting
Everyday is fun
I meet the greatest people
And make love in the sun
I travel across the world
Even when I'm in my bed
Cause everything I do
It just happens in my head
I have to stop dreaming now
Time for some action
Time for some action
Time for some action
In the real world
I keep on making plans
That are never carried out
Not risking any failure
For that, I am too proud
People should be friends
But they are enemies instead
I try to tell myself
It just happens in my head
I have to stop dreaming now
Time for some action
Time for some action
Time for some action
In the real world
I asked myself a thousand times:
What is bigger: the world or the mind?
When living virtual it's guilt I feel
So why am I afraid to live for real?
Everyday is fun
I meet the greatest people
And make love in the sun
I travel across the world
Even when I'm in my bed
Cause everything I do
It just happens in my head
I have to stop dreaming now
Time for some action
Time for some action
Time for some action
In the real world
I keep on making plans
That are never carried out
Not risking any failure
For that, I am too proud
People should be friends
But they are enemies instead
I try to tell myself
It just happens in my head
I have to stop dreaming now
Time for some action
Time for some action
Time for some action
In the real world
I asked myself a thousand times:
What is bigger: the world or the mind?
When living virtual it's guilt I feel
So why am I afraid to live for real?
