Waking up

I worry sometimes
Maybe life's just a dream
I don't want to wake up
I don't want to leave
Outside my head
Can be much too scary
So much weight on my chest
Though it's not mine to carry
I'll carry it all
No tears in my eyes
The burdens I bury
Are the reasons I hide
I love you
I'll miss you
I can feel it already
If I feel it for real?
I know it will kill me.
