"Imaginary" lyrics

Good night, darling, she said
They're no monsters underneath your bed
Only sweet dreams, so rest
How I wish to hear that voice again
Back when I thought ghosts were never real, chasing the fireflies
Barefoot through what felt like endless summer sky
Now the dark is all that I can feel, when every light hides
As I reach out for the life no longer mine

Only nightmare real for me instead
When love and laughter's just pretend, I dream of

Days to celebrate
Candles on the cake
Fold up paper planes
Imaginary
Evil you don't know
Is where I call home
The rest is all so
Imaginary

My bedtime lullabies
Are the ones the shadows hum at night
Ticking clocks can't rewind
To remove the mask I'm locked inside
Dream of monsters in your room
While I dream of being you, on and on, it's been so long
There's no chalk art on the ground
Seesaws don't sway up and down, I can't believe it anymore

Only nightmare real for me instead
When love and laughter's just pretend, I dream of

Days to celebrate
Candles on the cake
Fold up paper planes
Imaginary
Evil you don't know
Is where I call home
The rest is all so
Imaginary

Imaginary, imaginary, la-la-la-la
Imaginary, imaginary, la-la-la-la
Imaginary, imaginary, la-la-la-la
Imaginary, imaginary, imaginary
