#realy
They look at me with pointed sharp eyes, Tell me it's all in my mind, I must be blind, I look at the bedroom wall and there is nothing, Yet my mind every moment is filled with so much activity. I see this world around me spinning but slowly, This whole social mirage keeps on changing, Except when I'm drifting at night at my home, Good or bad, right or wrong, but never once when I was alone, was I ever TRULY alone. They followed me this way and that through The streets, called to me, scold me or made me laugh, Vague clay statuesque devils or angels, I could not say, *But in the end you tell me it's all in my mind When the night becomes day.* You and me, dreams fake, but all in all it's what is the take, You and me, plain as can be, but we're having fun falling asleep, Face first into the cake. You and me, our hopes so free, but we're still stuck where we will Always be. So what is real? What is fake? It seems to you there's much at stake, In daring to dream, daring to fly! Why not just grow old fast, Whither and die? So why my grin, why your frown? Could it be that your Hatred has gotten You down? It will be a long walk home, trailing turning, all alone, Over my shoulder I hear your scorn, every day until I'm forlorn. Every turn I feel their eyes, they never leave, yet it's always been, Always will be that I'm blind, YOU WIN like you always would, It's got to be it's all in my mind...
