Dreaming
I thought you'd show,
but you never came.
I thought you'd know
this isn't a game.
I thought you'd glow even in rain,
yet somehow
I was mistaken.
I wanted you to hear
but you never wait.
I wanted you clear
but you can't see straight.
I wanted you near
but here i am in hate
waiting for something
that was mistaken.
I thought you could fly,
but you have no wings.
I thought you would cry
but it's only me that this stings.
I thought you would try
but i can't pull anymore strings,
the last straw is gone
I'm cutting you loose.
I know now why,
but i still want an answer.
I know you could try,
but you can fall back faster.
I know we could fly,
but maybe we'll break.
Perhaps it's a risk you're willing to take.
Perhaps this is real, no longer fake.
Perhaps theres a chance we can make.
Perhaps this time, i wont wake
from what i thought was life
was only a dream.
