Academy Dream This World Lyrics

This World Lyrics

Richard's on the street with all the lonely poeple 

Trying to get a job and getting nowhere 

So now this is what he got 

A new kind of dedication 

He doesen't feel lost 

He walks into the station 



And Richard takes a train to go uptown 

You know he's gonna find a place where the money just walks around 

And with the grace of a wildcat 

He steals a bag without detection 

Walks on tiptoes right back 

To make the right connection. 



And when he leaves this world 

Well then he won't feel alone 

Now the fighting has all gone. 

No more just trying to hold on 

To the dreams of this world 

Where he never quite belonged. 



Belinda meets a friend at a pub called 'The Gun' 

It's full of lots of lonely people all ot trying to have some fun. 

She says, "I'll be right back" 

Although you know it's only ten to one 

Her eyes are just like a wild cat 

And where's the summer gone. 



She's been working on the ships for easy money 

It's a bigger kind of tip and that may be because 

You run a bigger kind of risk 

She's got the dedication written in a kiss 

In the promise of intoxicated bliss. 



She's misunderstood for all the lonely people 

Living in the world and getting nowhere, 

Something always just goes wrong. 

Why should they try to hold on 

To the dreams of this world 

Where they never wuite belonged. 



Gina says she's gonna stop, 

Settle down, you know, give it all up, 

But it's so hard to give it up 

When all your friends say they just can't 

Stop. 



They beat up a girl on the Ford Estate with a baseball bat 

Last night the vigilante city fathers tried to get their daughters back. 

They didn't understand 

A different kind of smack was needed 

Than the back of the hand 

Yeah, something else was always needed. 



This is for all the misunderstood lonely people 

Living in the world and getting nowhere 

Something always just goes wrong. 

Why should they try to hold on 

To the dreams of this world 

Where they never quite belonged? 

Where they never quite belonged.
