Someone Else

Watching a slew of happy couples

I’ve forgotten the way that they feel

Looking for some way to define me

I’m so abstract and unreal

This year I re-learned

What it’s like to get burned

After thinking that I was on top

This happened before

And repeats ever more

It’s a cycle with no way to stop

Images I can’t help but see

Memories that can never die

See this collage of misfortune?

Is this proof that I just shouldn’t try?

When's my time to shine?

When's happiness mine?

Why can’t fate be what it seems?

My vision went red

My soul still feels dead

As someone else lives through my dreams

Someone else lives through my dreams
