I used to believe in magical creatures

I'd meet prince charming with all the right features

And ride off in the sunset on a horse

But that's before I knew about divorce.

When I would go to sleep I'd always say, "mom

Keep the door open and please leave the light on"

'cause I thought monsters lived under the bed

But that's before I knew they walk the streets instead.

I wanna live in a world

Where people don't get hurt

And everybody's got enough money

Where nobody ever gets sick

Or has to skip a meal

I wanna live in a world where santa's real.

I used to think superheroes existed

If there was smoke in the sky, they'd come fix it

'cause good guys always won in the end

But that's before I knew it was all pretend.

I wanna live in a world

Where people don't get hurt

And everybody's got enough money

Where nobody ever gets sick

Or has to skip a meal

I wanna live in a world where santa's real.

I used to be young and naive

Until I saw things I couldn't unsee.

I wanna live in a world

Where people don't get hurt

And everybody's got enough money

Where nobody ever gets sick

Or has to skip a meal

I wanna live in a world

Where things I believed as a kid

Actually exist

And everybody's good to each other

Where nobody ever gets drunk

And gets behind the wheel

I wanna live in a world

Live in a world

I wanna live in a world where santa's real.
