Trapped in the Dusk

This is the world That I escape to when I’m desperate A world where dreams Transform into soft realities I watch it sparkle The sun rises brighter every time But then the dark comes And I watch the sun set on my sublime For every sun beam There are two moons It shines so brightly But leaves too soon And we lay enveloped In what we’ve lost But I’m forced to stay here Trapped in the dusk You laugh and you cry When you’re in this place Weighed down by fears That can’t be erased So you start running fast And push off of the ground Then soar like an eagle Before you come tumbling down I tried to escape from this other world Tried harder and harder to never go back But it’s Neverland for adults you see And discipline is a virtue that I lack For every sunbeam There are two moons It shines so brightly But leaves too soon And we lay enveloped In what we’ve lost But I’m forced to stay here Trapped in the dusk Still with all of its faults I can’t get away But just like a mirage I can never stay So I travel back To a world that’s fake Full of fantasies My brain could never make For every sunbeam There are two moons It shines so brightly But leaves too soon And we lay enveloped In what we’ve lost But I’m forced to stay here Trapped in the dusk
