The only time I'm able to escape,
From reality, and all of life's problems,
My one sanctuary
The one place I can be at peace,
Is when I dream.

My dreams were soft and kind,
And never was I afraid.
Though I cannot remember them all
I know that they were always peaceful,
Melodious in the ways they play false memories
Trapped inside my imagination.

But then you were there.
You found your way inside my head.
You made me dream of you instead.
From bright and pink to dark and red,
You made me hate going to bed.

Your twisted mind, your toxic thoughts
All flooded into me, like a broken dam
And I could not escape, I could not leave,
Cause we both know
You never leave me alone.

I see you in the mirrors.
I see you in the hallway.
I see you coming closer,
I feel your presence approaching.
Angrily, I shout at you to leave
But you never do,
You never did.
Even when you packed your **** and left,
You still were here.
Watching me.
Judging me.
Hurting me.
Haunting me.

Every night, I see you there,
In my room,
In my dreams.
I just want to sleep.
Please, let me rest.
I'm just so tired of loving you.
I'm just so tired of loving.
I'm just so tired of you.
I'm just,

I'm just so tired.
I just
Want
Sleep.
Even when we move one, they always find their ways back into our heads.
