Not Awake, Alive
I'm not awake
But I'm alive
A life, a lie,
It's all the same
When you're asleep.
I wake
But I'm dead to the world,
The real world,
Where you're around,
Somewhere,
But your absence is
A painful truth.
I'm not awake,
I'm living
A life with you,
Loving life with you.
It will take time,
But it will be
Perfect when
I wake with you
One day.
