LYRICS
Hiding behind a cloud of illusion Living in castles of dreams Turning your eyes from the pain and the lies And pretending it's not what it seems
Johnny, wake up to reality Daydreams have gone with your youth Johnny confess that your life's in a mess Johnny wake up to the truth
Pretending that everything is going your way Refusing to see when it's not Shutting your mind to the problems you find On a walk on your way from the lot
Johnny, wake up to reality Daydreams have gone with your youth Johnny confess that your life's in a mess Johnny wake up to the truth Johnny wake up to the truth Johnny wake up to the truth Johnny wake up...to the truth
