i care too deeply about people who don't exist
i take care of them as if they're an object of my own
i abandon reality to care for these people
abandoning reality is always what i do best
reckless ideas, only shared in my head
reckless ideas, while i never leave my bed
ignoring all signs of the fact i need 'out'
ignoring everything real, drowning me in doubt
