Imagined You
Did I just imagine you or are you just a dream
maybe just a figment of my brains insanity
do I dare to question whether you are really real?
maybe I should tell someone how lost I really feel
do you know how lonely it is inside my brain?
there is no one to share this deep embodied pain
I tried to do everything to show you how deeply I feel
but you never bought that this was ever the real deal
I don't know what to say to you, have no way to explain
the disappointment that I felt when it just washed away
remember the day you confirmed you had lied to me
didn't you understand that betrayal cut way deep
time and time I asked you and you thought I had no clue
I was not the clueless one your deception I saw through
so I sit here all alone not knowing what to say
wanting to reassure you that everything is okay
maybe the relationship was only in my brain
maybe there is no you, that you are a figment I create
doesn't matter anyway, I'll love you all the same
