The truth was less beautiful
Than what I created
It didn't have as many facets
Didn't have the same shine
Reality hit me
Like a cold and hard rock
And shattered the diamond of my hope into shards
Scattered my dreams
And threw them apart
I was a lie
But I loved my lie
Oh take me far away
It was better that way
But I still held hands with the solace
And the freedom of sleep
They could not take that away from me.
