In a dream, a perfect illusion living the life you've always wanted In reality, there's so much confusion, Leading you farther from where you had started Time is taking its tolls and you're still stuck in the beginning Ceasing to move, ceasing to live You still hold on, hoping they'll give Everything you once wanted, but it's leading you farther from where you had started. As time moves on more and more You start to wish love hadn't left you sore Sore for life, and sore for love You try to forgive, but it's so hard You want to move on, but your heart's in shards While they lie on the floor, you sit there crying more and more Yet, you still hold on, and think "just one last chance" hoping and praying that this time, it won't give. No, Hope that it won't bow, it won't fray, If only it lasts just one more day Just to hold him one more night, Just so you can get that ultimate high Though, he seems to be leading you farther away from everything that was there to stay; From everything that you wanted Leading you farther from where you had started

Farther Away
In a dream, a perfect illusion living the life you've always wanted In reality, there's so much confusion, Leading you farther from where you had started Time is taking its tolls and you're still stuck in the beginning Ceasing to move, ceasing to live You still hold on, hoping they'll give Everything you once wanted, but it's leading you farther from where you had started. As time moves on more and more You start to wish love hadn't left you sore Sore for life, and sore for love You try to forgive, but it's so hard You want to move on, but your heart's in shards While they lie on the floor, you sit there crying more and more Yet, you still hold on, and think "just one last chance" hoping and praying that this time, it won't give. No, Hope that it won't bow, it won't fray, If only it lasts just one more day Just to hold him one more night, Just so you can get that ultimate high Though, he seems to be leading you farther away from everything that was there to stay; From everything that you wanted Leading you farther from where you had started
