Dreams
I've started sleeping again
Not sleeping or dreaming like normally
But escaping
From the harsh truth that is realityI dream and dream
Night after night
This is the true
Fight or flightThe slightest sound will wake me
Cold and slight
Til I'm shaking
It's not as bad as people think
But not as easy as they'd hope eitherI dream and dream
Day after day
Trying to escape or get away
Theres nothing that I need more
than just to dreamAnxious
No one knows what it's like
No one can explain how it feels
It's not as easy as it looks
And it's not just chasing at their heelsIt follows constantly
almost like a shadow
It's dark and light at the same time
But does it even matter?It seems as if it's a curse
But can it be a blessing too?
Imagining all the possible situations and outcomes
Could prepare you for the worst or the best
when time sees it's due
