the state of dreaming

-

you always have me feeling oh, so vulnerable.
i sure hope my existence doesn't seem like too much trouble.
you've always seemed to be a little bit confused lately.
is it because you've spent too much of your time around me?

you know how much i want you and you know how much i care,
and you tell me that we'll meet again but i'll always wonder where.
you never seemed like the type of guy to be this sweet and kind;
i wonder if it's because you know how much i want you to be mine?

the thing that's always the problem is that i wonder quite a lot.
i let my mind off on it's own and before too long, i'm lost.
maybe you can help to keep my head screwed on just right.
i need you now because my thoughts won't go down without a fight.

every night i dream of you, but most times it's not pretty.
you're always there but always mad and wallowing in self-pity.
but maybe that's how you live your life outside of my subconscious,
the dreams in which you're glowing and happy are the dreams i truly miss.

for all i know, you could be having the same dreams about me,
the ones where i am always sad and never feel like i am free.
and little to your knowledge, that's how i live my life,
so maybe you should speak to me; tell me how i'll be alright.

of course i still feel vulnerable, and of course i always will,
but the thought of being in your dreams is quite a subtle thrill.
i only hope you dream of me, in my state of melancholy,
because really your dreams would be so dull if they never did involve me.
