[Verse 1]
My life's like a dream, but this ain't where I wanna be
See, I ain't gotta be apart of your society
But I guess it's easy just to say I feel stronger alone
Now the only one I'm lying to is me..
So I pick the microphone up, you can feel when the flow hit
Like I'm just saying what I feel, but they call me a poet
I never meant to make it rhyme, yeah, I do it all the time
But I love you, and I wanted to make sure, that you know it
Everywhere I go, I see you there and I break apart
But I ain't gotta cover it up, no more, I give you my naked heart
Cause now I'm done walking through the rain
Like I'd been through all of this beautiful pain, and then I made it art
But if this ain't the start, of something new
Why'd you come into my life, to leave when I needed you
See, this ain't a dream, but now I seem to be moving through it
Just to be reminded, why I'm alive, and I'm breathing, too
But if this is me, and I am not ready to take that leap
I ain't gonna make a promise, that you don't want me to keep
And they say what goes around, comes around
But I ain't coming up, from the underground, unless it's when I am sound asleep..
[Hook]
I know that you're afraid of the light..
But you don't wanna know what it's like..
Opening your eyes in the middle of the night..
And the only thing you're feeling is belittlement inside..
(This sleepless dream..)
But you don't wanna see me fight..
Only time I tell the truth is on the mic..
I hope you can hear me now, cause you're the only reason that I write..
But I think it might be time I said goodbye to..
(This sleepless dream..)
[Verse 2]
So when I'm gone, I hope you know
You were everything I wanted, but I couldn't take it slow
I hoped I'd become strong, and I guess that I was wrong
Cause I'm writing you yet another love song, like here we go
But this is different, try to hear me out
Cause this time, you already know what I'm about
I'm feeling lonely by myself
When it's cold, and now my only enemy is all my self-doubt
And still I felt, I was lost
Like our hearts became halves, as soon as our paths crossed
But I wish that you'd of stayed, instead we strayed
And now I'm sitting here, afraid, of what you made me hate, I paid the cost
Cause you're the only thing I need to hold
Forget the freedom, with me would you be as cold?
I know it seems, like it's all just a dream, but I would have took an oath
To be there, until we're both old..
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
But I don't know if this is real
My life's going round in circles - need to reinvent the wheel
And sometimes I feel like you're my only fan, but I ain't Superman
So don't think you can take my heart, and treat it like it's made of steel
Cause it'll shatter, from the stress
Like I'm giving you my all, don't settle for nothing less
You know I'm only doing this to impress you, but if this ain't a question
Then why would I hope that you'll be saying yes
As I express, what's on my mind
And if you ain't know it's true, by now, you must be blind
Never met somebody who was so kind, treated me, like a king
You were everything I wanted, but I couldn't find
On my own, I said I'd fight
Cause if I ain't gonna change, then the weather might
But when I think of you it hurts, so this music is a curse
And I swear this will be the last verse I ever write..
[Hook x 2]
