I’ve made up my mind to forget you this time
I tell myself that now you have crossed the fine line
There’s no going back now, no chance for repair
If only my dreams recognized this despair

I cannot control who I see in my sleep
But somehow you know this is when I am weak
I drift off at night, feeling hopeful for all
Yet then you appear and my hope starts to fall

I try to be strong, and I try hard not to care
But in my dreams, you are always there
I am forced each night to gaze into your eyes
The eyes that I know will never be mine

I have tried everything from ***** to pills
But nothing removes you; you’re in my dreams still
I need to erase you, in all of your forms
I try to remember how badly I’ve been scorned

I’ve successfully deleted you from all of my days
If same held true at night, I wouldn’t feel this way
It’s subconscious taking hold of me and my true thoughts
It’s so nice to see you, but this really must stop
