My dreams, they never come true
And if they ever, ever do
It's never you
I want to come home
I want to mend
And all those old feelings are all coming back again

My dreams are hard to press on
And when I'm driving down the road
I'm not in control
I want to let go
I want to shake hands
With the person that's responsible for this master plan
I know I will, I know I can

My dreams will never come true
And if they ever, ever do
It's never you
My dreams will never come true
And if they ever, ever do
It's never you

    General Comment:No meanings yet? I'll try to take a dive... I think its about how your dreams can be frustrating because you feel as if you don't have control over them sometimes. But thinks like lucid dreaming can help discover them a little more. When the girl sings "new surroundings" I think its as if to say that by just being curious of who is in charge and part of the "master plan" is opening up yourself to new surroundings. I don't know about you guys but I feel like Phantogram has spiritual meanings behind a lot of their songs as well.

    Lyric Correction:Correct lyrics:

    (New surroundings)
    My dreams will never
    Come true
    And if they ever ever did
    There's never you
    I want to implode
    I want it to end
    Feelings are coming
    Back again

    (New surroundings)

    My dreams
    Are haunting my soul
    And when I'm driving
    Down the road
    I'm not in control
    I want to let go
    I want to shake hands
    With the person that's
    Responsible for this
    Master plan

    I know I will
    I know I can

    (New surroundings)
    (This is not in your mind)

    My dreams
    Will never come true
    And if they ever ever do
    It's never you
