In Spite Of The World Lyrics - Ataris

I woke up from this dream to find that I was sleeping 

So I went back to sleep and I dreamed I was awake. 

I locked myself inside but you were on the outside 

I stood outside and watched but I couldn't let you in. 

Maybe you could see inside yourself. 

Wrote a letter to myself, but I couldn't bare to send it. 

So I tore it up and wrote a letter to a friend. 

If only you could know that growing up means letting go 

Maybe then you'd grow up by yourself.
