Close your eyes back up, little daydreamer. Don't let them see your dull, mixed eyes. Go back to fairy tails and lost worlds. Go back to your lies. You're not ready for this one.
     Everything is real here. They have expectations. You can't meet those. So, go back to sleep.
    There are real problems here too. You can't solve those. So, go back to the clouds.
     This is a real world. You can't handle that. So, go back.
    
    Close those dull unready eyes. Count the sheep, like a good little daydreamer. And imagine yourself a less scary world.
    Oh little daydreamer, you aren't ready.
