I dont want to go to sleep at night because I know what I'll see
a vision of what could be if you'd believe in the power of you and me
I dream of a day of us creating lands
a simple story accomplished in us walking hand in hand
But I dont want to see these dreams because they remind me of reality
of how each morning i wake up to the brutal fatality
I see what ur lips could be like entwined in mine
and i know it's nothing more than a cruel prank in my mind
but i cant help but know that when i sleep i smile
as visions rain images of ur heavenly profile
and a longing that stays lit deep inside
is blown as i see the look of those powerful piercing eyes
and i know with you i could never lie
so you can see why every morning i wake up and despise
that daylight where i realize that warm body next to mine was never there
and i simply must accept that you were just that dream
that one vision that i can never seem... to catch...
and i ask is it healthy to feel this way...
mourning the morning and smiling when the night comes to play
because your vision is what keeps me strong even though it's just a dream that can never last long
it inspires me to put in an effort to create my own beautiful  song and is that wrong?
I wish it could always be night so that when i close my eyes it will always be alright but it's not right...
my days feel long because of a feeling i contain that strains too strong
and i search for answers that i know are not there
as I continue to smile in my sleep for the lovely pain that is....
