Dreams help me escape from reality
But if all my dreams came true,
Will I be depressed or happy

I see you in the night,
When the only sound is silence,
and the only thought is you.

What if I'm not really here?
What if someplace else,
I'm with you?

I know nothing
You know something
We question everything

You can try to hurt me,
but maybe I like the way it hurts
Or maybe I just like you

What’s it like to wish a day away, and find out it wasn’t worth it?
To give all your love to somebody, knowing deep down, that they don't deserve it?
Have you entered something through motivation that was only expedient?
Continued in a relationship, while knowing that love was the missing ingredient
Ignored all the warnings, and screaming signs, only to fall in love with thought, and potential
Put yourself in detrimental situations, and denied yourself of missing things, that you knew were essential
Been in a one-sided relationship. Loved someone at their best, and even at their worst
Produced the most pure love imaginable, but still they wouldn’t put you first
Gave everything, just to lose yourself a little bit
I know what it's like to wish a day away... and it wasn’t worth it

most people see me as
a happy person because
i laugh easily,
i smile a lot,
i joke a lot.

but deep down
in my heart,
i am fragile,
i can get hurt easily,
but i choose to not
show it to the world.

instead of being sad,
i choose to laugh to cover it.
maybe you can call me
"the queen of the mask"

by this,
you can tell
that most of the time
when I'm laughing,
I'm not really laughing,
i was trying so hard to hide
my sadness.

Let’s play a game of pretend
Where I don’t have to acknowledge our end
When heartbreak was a distant stranger
When loving too fast was the only danger
When the walls were non-existent, and we ignored the suggested lines
I’ll go back to when I didn’t have to lie by calling you mine
Then I could hug you one more time, and I’ll get to say all the things that I wanted to say
Like I did, I’d always remind you of my undying love. I’d acknowledge your perfection every day
I wouldn’t mind getting the chance to fall in love with you again
For you, I’ll take every rule possible, and find a way to make it bend
I’d make you sing your favorite songs, again, and again for me. Just because I can
Every day I’d remind you that even if the world is against you, I’d still be your biggest fan
I’d be able to say your name, and keep my eyes dry because I’m pretending you're still my world
No one could ever compare. No competition, you’d always be my favorite girl
I’d take the chance to love, and know you all over again, while admitting you’re my blessing, and curse
I’d still love you more than what’s good for me. And I’ll pretend it’s better, not worse
I’d learn all your favorite fruits, and bagels again, and squeeze your hand a little tighter
I’d introduce you to the war of love, and especially to its two newest fighters
I’d make you retell your secrets. Watch you redraw all the flowers, and hearts you drew
I’d gladly go through all the first awkwardness of our love again, and my bad attempts to explain how much I love you
This game of pretend scares me into thinking of what I could’ve done better
Now all I can do is remember, and try to keep my eyes from getting wetter
I’d look deeper in your eyes. I’d look longer for one last time, but don't call me crazy
Maybe I’d redo all these things, and more, if I got the privilege to get you back. If, and maybe
But in the meantime, I’ll stay daydream of the days that I got to call you my baby

I’ve never felt so loved, but heartbroken
Every detail about you was another reason for life
The once invisible walls, are now seen, and acknowledged
Tribulation increases my hope. My motivation
You lit up my dark. You were my hand when I fell
Two heartbroken lovers. Broken by each other, and their own
Try to mend each other, but don't realize the cuts aren’t being healed. The pain is only postponed.
So I’ll try to stop looking at you the way I do
I’m sorry for always apologizing. Especially when you don’t want me to
I’ll work on stopping my love for you
But I’ll never forget all that we’ve been through

If I could capture every wave
But only enough for a lifetime
I’d free the ocean’s slave
Under the temptation of making it mine.
I’d sail the sea to find the one
Who’s voice dies in the wind
Yet calls out to the waves, and the Sun
To repent for all it has sinned.
I’d embrace the life, the death
The love, and disaster in between
I’d take away heartbreak’s breath
Transform it into love, amongst the blues of foam, and green.
I’d release it’s adventures, and songs of wreck
Uncover every secret that was kept under
Slow down time, but just for a sec
Expose the naked beauty of the thoughts of blunder.
I’d let it’s sound echo far, and wide
Just to make people wonder
About the ocean’s stride
The self-dedication to capture the thunder.
At every crash, you’re forced to embrace the tidal knife
So if I could capture every wave
But just enough for the rest of my life
I’d fall in love with the ocean’s slave
With the temptation of making it my wife.
