Make Your Own Reality

We were told what our lives were supposed to mean
That we knew everything we could possibly be
But a simple dose of reality
Turned everything on its head

From an infinite life to a single thread
The control of the past has fallen instead
What do you do when you know there's an end
You gotta make your own reality!
(Ooh, ooh)
(Ooh)

We started out knowing nothing but the show
(Just a fragment of a memory)
‘Cause in our minds where else was there to go
(Who were we supposed to be?)

We didn't know the world existed
Or who we were outside the competition
It took so long to make things right
(Now we've seen the light)

Now we're faced with a new reality
(Everything is all so new)
Our souls are free to be who they wanna be
(Now we finally know what's true)

And everything that came before
Doesn't have to be our norm
(But what do you do when you know life isn't forever?)

Doomed by the thoughts inside of our heads
Surrounded by our new and old friends
We were held together by connected threads
Of staged reality

Let the past be the past let the future be
Whatever will let us find our meaning
Reality is ours for the taking
So now is the time to make it

Open your eyes
Take in the life you could lead
When you realize
There's more than this insanity
And maybe we're not real but what's real anyway?
It all comes down to you, your reality is what you make!

Can a reality (show)
Be our reality? (No!)
This glimpse of mortality
(Opens our minds to a brighter future)

Whatever comes next, we don't (know!)
But now we get to choose where to (go!)
Our reality is here
(Still our story to be told!)

And sure, things will be different
But that doesn't mean it's not worth it
Our past may have been tied to the game
But the future is ours to claim

(Own reality)
(Make your own reality)
