Don't Dream It's Over (feat. Sylvan Esso) - Flock of Dimes

Don't Dream It's Over, a cover by Flock of Dimes and Sylvan Esso

LYRICS:

There is freedom within
There is freedom without
Try to catch a deluge in a paper cup

There's a battle ahead
Many battles are lost
But you'll never see the end of the road
While you're travelling with me

Hey now, hey now
Don't dream, it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win

Now I'm towing the car
There's a hole in the roof
My possessions are causing me suspicion but there's no proof
In the paper today
Tales of war and of waste
But you turn right over to the T.V. page

Hey now, hey now
Don't dream, it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win

Now I'm walking alone
To the beat of a drum
And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart
Only shadows ahead
Barely clearing the roof
Get to know the feeling of liberation and release

Hey now, hey now
Don't dream, it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
You know they won't win

Hey now, hey now
Don't dream, it's over
Hey now, hey now
Don't dream
Hey now, hey now
