Continuum

A fear of regret eats a hole deep inside of me

The torment of failure gives me chills at night and makes it hard to breathe

But, in my dreams I’ve found a way to hide

From the horrible thoughts that keep me up at night

A place where wrong is right and failure’s undefined

Please don’t take me away from here

This is a place that’s free of harsh decisions

I’ve once again chosen to leave my life behind

In here I can live how I desire

In my dreams I know I control everything

But, as I wake up from this dream

I’m reminded of the ugliness that surrounds me

I think I’ll just go back to sleep

Because my dreams are the only place where I can feel peace

Am I awake or am I still dreaming?

I’m growing nervous it’s getting hard to tell

Would I miss this life if there’s no turning back?

Could I even turn back if I wanted to?!

But, in my dreams I’ve found a way to hide.

From the horrible thoughts that keep me up at night.

A place where wrong is right and failure’s undefined

My decision is final, I’m never coming back

I’ve made a terrible mistake

I’m trapped in a dream and I need to get out

How did this happen?

I now know that life is worth living

Not just in it’s beauty, it’s the pain, sorrow

And the heartbreaks that make me who I am

And makes me feel alive

If there’s anyone that can hear me

Anyone at all

I have made a mistake

And I’m not sure if there is any coming back from this now

Now I see that it would be impossible

For any kind of dream or fantasy

To even come close to the brilliance of simply being alive

This is my future on that line

This is my destiny

No one can tell me what’s right for me

Only I can decide

I can see life with such clarity now, and it all makes sense

I just hope that there’s a way out of here

Is there anyone out there?

Can you hear me?

I am stuck in a dream, and I need to get out

I’m at the top of my lungs

Can you hear me now?!
