Smile like you mean it,
Pretend to care once more...

My dreams consist of nightmares,
Things I shouldn't see...

You don't know how long I stared,
At this white paper lying in front of me...

I have this feeling inside,
That floods through every vein...

I’m tired in my bones,
I’m tired in my mind...

Watch this heart shatter,
The broken pieces scatter...

You stole my pen,
my words...

The shadows play across the wall,
Fear floating stagnant through the air...

If I'm only dreaming,
That means this isn't real...

Tell yourself to breathe,
Things have to be okay...

Fairytales and daydreams,
Just illusions before my eyes...

I know the answer.
I know what I must do, but...
