YOUNG P.T.]
I close my eyes and I can see
(When I can lie in bed with just my thoughts, i can explore)
The world that's waiting up for me
That I call my own
(My imaginary world)
Through the dark, through the door
(in my bedroom, with the lights off)
Through where no one's been before
(Other people cannot see this world)
But it feels like home
(yet I feel so comfortable here)

They can say, they can say it all sounds crazy
They can say, they can say I've lost my mind
(they can say i have mental problems; they can say I'm too old to  play imagine)
I don't care, I don't care, so call me crazy
(but whatever. Call me crazy, fine)
We can live in a world that we design
(We can live in our imaginary world)

'Cause every night I lie in bed
(everyday, at bedtime)
The brightest colors fill my head
(I forget my problems, I have good thoughts)
A million dreams are keeping me awake
(I go on imaginary adventures. I can't just leave)
I think of what the world could be
(I think what my life could be)
A vision of the one I see
(that only I can see)
A million dreams is all it's gonna take
(Just try, and you can go on imaginary adventures, too)
A million dreams for the world we're gonna make
(you can be part of your own world, too)

There's a house we can build
(we can put buildings,)
Every room inside is filled
(where we can think about)
With things from far away
(things from the real world)
The special things I compile
(my irl memories)
Each one there to make you smile
(if you like, you can only think of the good ones)
On a rainy day
(even when things irl are going bad)

They can say, they can say it all sounds crazy
(they can say we're childish)
They can say, they can say we've lost our minds
(they can say it's mental problem)
I don't care, I don't care if they call us crazy
(but whatever)
Runaway to a world that we design
(because we can go back to our imaginary world)

[P.T. BARNUM]
Every night I lie in bed
(at bedtime)
The brightest colors fill my head
(happy thoughts)
A million dreams are keeping me awake
(my imaginary adventures)
I think of what the world could be
(I decide what reality is like here)
A vision of the one I see
(an edited version of the real world)
A million dreams is all it's gonna take
(i just need to open my mind, accept my imagination)
A million dreams for the world we're gonna make
(toughts of our imaginary world)

[CHARITY BARNUM, with P.T. BARNUM]
However big, however small
(the plots, the details)
Let me be part of it all
(put it all in, dont hold back)
Share your dreams with me
(and be proud, not shy)
You may be right, you may be wrong
(realistic or not)
But say that you'll bring me along
(i want to know)
To the world you see
(your imagination)
To the world I close my eyes to see
(to the world that only exists in our heads)
I close my eyes to see
(I'm going to my world)

Every night I lie in bed
The brightest colors fill my head
(good thoughts come to my head)
A million dreams are keeping me awake
(All,y imaginary adventures)
A million dreams, a million dreams
(so many adventures)
I think of what the world could be
(i think of my augmented reality)
A vision of the one I see
(augmented from this one)
A million dreams is all it's gonna take
(just a little imagination)
A million dreams for the world we're gonna make
(imagine our world)

For the world we're gonna make
(i agine our world)

OMG this song talks to me on an extremely personal level

I talk to my imaginary friends, yes,and i don't plan to stop, they help me w my emotions
