Sleeping
A picture of you, stuck inside my head.
So despicable, I wish I was dead.
A vision I’m in, crack my dream, a dream disturbed,
nights interrupted.
Since you already smashed my reality.
I have to stop faking my individuality.
I can’t keep up with your changing of faces.
Slowly melting away my self-esteem.
We use to be a team.
Just now a dreaded dream.
It seems what was has changed, into what you hate.
You used me as bait.
The was all a game for you
All down on paper and planned for you.
To rule my life and get him back.
Turn it around to see the truth you’re just a load on my back.
I can’t get you out of my head.
The more you push, the harder I pull.
I’m going to break, edging closer to the cliff every
time I’m about to wake.
I keep pinching but I don’t wake up.
This didn’t happen to me.
Lord, empty my cup.
Somebody, help me give it all up.
I didn’t fall in love.
No, not with her.
It can’t be.
She makes me cry at night
Why, why is it for her I fight?
Roll, roll, I can’t sleep at night.
I just wish I could awake.
Why did god give me my sight?
Was fine with blinds over my eyes.
I just wish I could see!
I wish I could wake up.
This didn’t happen to me.
Just a dream.
Just a dream.
That ruined my self-esteem.
