Reality Race

In reality you're right
But reality is wrong 
In reality you're winning
But you're already gone

I know you think that it's ok
But what you're thinking isn't true
You think that we're ok
But I was fine without you

I am fine alone
I was fine alone
I wish I was alone again
This charade has to end

I need to go back to my previous ways
I can't stay like this another day
A plastered smile upon my face
The truth is, life is a race

In your mind your winning
But in reality it's me
I have crossed the finish line
And now we both are free
