Dreams

I wish I could be someone else, someone I am in dreams; Because a dream is a fix, deeper than any drug gets, and for that it's something for which I fiend. Maybe it's because it helps me forget; All of the lies all the regrets. But before I could stop, I'd never turned around; Till I noticed I wasn't moving, yet just sitting on the ground. Gathering a layer of dirt, that I can't scrub off; I wish I had your skin, so clean and so soft. Cause you have not seen what I have, your eyes are still blind; Because you haven't messed up yet, you haven't fallen behind. Because you're too strong to let go, you've even pulled me back up; And I know since you've done this for me, it's drained life from your cup. And for that I love you, and this love will never change; Cause you have made me feel something, and I know I will never be the same. Now every time you stare at me, till my vision fades to green; It takes me someplace far, even farther than a dream.
