Horrible Dream

When a kiss puts out the sun.
There is nothing left but the so called fun.
I want to run, I want to hide, I just want to die.
All the relentless nights provide a longing for home.
There is no way back I'm always alone.
My purity is gone, I'm on my own
searching for some kind of home.
Emotionlessly, I'm waiting for dawn.
What last night just went on.
No one will know, no one will tell.
Is this just a living hell.
Making it fast making it slow.
I'm spent but know nobody knows.
How sad it seems when holding hands
and I'm alone in this here land.
I want to shout, I want to scream.
What a mockery of love it does seem.
I can't see you, you can't see me.
No in between is sought or seen.
I can't look back what a horrible dream.
