Looking out my window late at night
For a star to wish upon
Cause I'm looking for a dream to keep me going
Cause my hope and inspiration's all gone
I've flown up to stars
I've swam in the ocean down below
I've still got no place to go
Nowhere left to search to find a dream
Running out of ambition
Running out of inspiration
I've given it my all
I've come too far to fall now
I've been looking for a dream
To give some purpose to this purposeless life
I need something to keep me going til the end
I'm looking for a dream
A dream to lift the hope left me
To finish this life that I've started
I'm looking for a dream
To give my life a new meaning
Cause everything seems to have gone wrong
Can't keep playing this song of self pity anymore
I need a dream to give me something to live for
A dream where I can escape reality every now and then
My life's standing still
Stuck on this road with no end
I've given it my all
I've come too far to fall now
I've been looking for a dream
To give some purpose to this purposeless life
I need something to keep me going til the end
I'm looking for a dream
Looking for a dream
For a dream....

Are you hiding inside your shell
Are you standing in the corner
Are you happy in this hell
Is the box you're put in getting a little small
Are you tired of living with your back against the wall
Open your eyes and your mouth
Come on just yell
Let it all out
Step out of the shadows
Let them all know you're here
Let's cuff the hands of time
And lose the keys
No more living just to die
Too many moments have passed us by
There's nothing you can find at the bottom of a bottle
You can't find in the world outside
We all look at the same sky
Wish upon the same stars
Wishing we could break free from it all
No matter how much you deny
It's as simple as it seems
It's not about falling it's about
Getting back up
The strength is inside you and me
Don't let the world bring you down
Take my hand I'll lift you up
It's no longer time to be alone
There's more to life than you've seen
Experience it before your gone
No it's not as cold as it seems
Solitude has been your home too long
But it's broken down
You think you're making a statement
Making waves
But you're just going unnoticed
Take a chance before it's too late
Cause you never know when it's your time
Step out of the cage you put yourself in
Come on the doors open
Take a step outside
Let go of the second guessing
And the self pitying
Take a chance and love yourself
You know you deserve it
Even just for a little while
You dont think you exist outside
Your mind
But you are here
You are something
Just let yourself show
I can see the yearning deep down in your soul
Tame it and let it free you'll be whole
You'll be complete

They say
What doesn't **** you makes you stronger
They say
That time  heals all wounds
Insert whatever cliche you wish
It doesn't change all this
All that's been damaged
All that's broken
All that's been taken away
I don't know if I can survive much longer
They say just go with the flow
They say you should roll with the punches
Take your cliches and go away
The only place I wanna go is where you are
And tell you all I should have told you
To get back the only part of me that really mattered
And that's you
How could I have been so blind
How'd I lose sight of all that I had
All that I held so dear
What I wouldn't give to hold you now
To smell you
To breath the air around you

Wounded, shattered, broken
Left for dead out in the open
The air stolen out of my lungs
The last time we kissed
Left here gasping
Grasping onto dissipating hope
The light fades into darkness
As you walk away
Pleading, begging, wishing
For one more kiss, one more touch
Even just a look into your eyes so blue
Eyes that could see right through my flaws
See through my walls
And love the parts of me I didn't know existed
To have a single word you utter
Reach my ears
The soothing sound of your voice
That I shall hear no more
As the life flees from my body
I want you to know
I love you more than I could ever say
Getting to see you every day
Made me thankful every morning I awoke
If you're truly gone I pray in the morning I shall not wake

Dear Dreams
I hope you hear my calls
Hope won't answer
Faith is nowhere to be found
And Doubt  won't leave me alone
Dear Dreams you're all I got left
I know it's been some time since we last met
But Sleep  hasn't visited me in a while
And I don't any other way to get to where you are
So I'm calling out to you
I'm racing against the sun
Trying to outrun the light
Just for one night

— The End —
