I finally had a night in which my dreams were all my own
for weeks i've had a face in them, subconsciously I was shown
i hoped and hoped that one day soon i'd wash the fear away
but deep deep down my mind wouldn't let the memory fade
so instead i dreaded laying my head to rest my weary eyes
for all the good the memory had was tainted with the lies
but now i guess I've dealt with it and now I'm going to shine
because today i woke up happy and free my dreams are finally mine
it's possible that the lingering idea of what it could have been
is what i held on to because in the end i wanted a friend
but friends don't have malevolence hidden behind a sweet disguise
so now I'm wise to despise the lies and smile when the hope dies
that being good to people that aren't can set the standard high
to set a good example for them to be better or even just to try
I finally had a night in which my dreams were all my own
thank you for the pain you've caused, because of it I've grown
Stronger now i pity you
you can change, or die alone.
