Your there after every long day
And even today with tears falling down my cheeks
There you are
Your embrace wrapping around me
Making me sink in to more of a mood
Pulling myself from you is getting harder and harder
Where I don't even want to wake up anymore
No matter how much I sleep it's never enough
And even after a day like this
You embrace me as if I were a lover
Freezing as I step from you
No matter how many layer I put on its never enough
As everything around me is ice
This tomb that I call my own
Ice hits me from the second I step inside
And the only place
Where I feel warm enough that I can still exist
Is you
Each and every night you pull me deeper in to a dream
Better than any reality I could have ever lived
Where you were there through my crushes and tears
Her I remain broken and in fear
Someday it's going to be a little to hard
To pull myself away from you
The blankets and sheets acting as knots
Bounding me to you like a prisoner
As I dream more than I am awake
Where the highlight of my day
Is returning back to you
Each and every morning it gets harder and harder to fight
Where I press snooze one more time
Desperately trying to convince myself
That this is alright
Spending every living second bound and tied
Where my dreams are better than being alive
Where now I understand
When people say they wish they could dream forever
I have no more energy for being awake
Waking up exhausted day after day
And there you are
Day after day
Convincing me that sleeping is better than being awake
Where your no longer just my bed
But now one of my friends
And I hate to say
Your winning our little game.
