Identity Theft
And if I felt it freeze my soul
I know I've finally lost control
And if it spoke to me in vain
I know I let it steal my Name
And if I take before I give
I know it claimed my right to live
And if I sought to make it real
I know the hurt could never heal
A dream of hate is still a dream
No matter how real it may seem
Because I try my best to love
I hope to join my Self above
Because I'm desperate for a Friend
I hope someday to make amends
Because I cry from loneliness
I hope I can escape from this
Because I give before I take
I hope He'll gently let me wake
A dream of love is still a dream
No matter how real it may seem
