I'm painting a picture of a perfect world
And though it may never exist
There, my heart is fresh and new
No scars across my wrist
And in my dreams it feels so real
Each moment that is spent
Is worry-free and effortless
There, I am content
He used to stop by now and then
And others came round too,
Back when I felt deep pain or love
In the real world, for you
Lately this world's been empty
The details aren't clear
Because I am no longer sure
Of what I most want here
My path was once planned out
I knew just what I needed
But lately I've lost track of things
My dreams have been impeded
And now my world is blank
Shadows lurk round every turn
And not even I know who is there
My dreams I can't discern
I don't know what I want,
But maybe that's okay.
I'll stride with courage, every step
And take life day by day.
