Better Left a Lie

My means are small My dreams are big My life is poor My soul is rich Fantasies are better left a lie Fantasies are better left a lie This world is gray Love is a loser's game Why should I play and just get more of the same... pain Fantasies are better left a lie Fantasies are better left a lie I loved and loved I poured and poured I bled and bled I pour my love inside a girl filled with holes she couldn't hold I poured my love inside her hands It slipped through like grains of sand she couldn't hold I bled and bled I poured and poured I loved and lost Fantasies are better left a lie Fantasies are better left a lie *Sometimes we are disappointed when we chase our dreams and it wasn't what we thought it would be. This is about leaving it a dream/lie to stay happy and hopeful.
