Reality's Dream

All your words make me fall apart at each and every seam Tell me, darling Is this reality or just a dream? Your eyes bleed right through me as if this barricade was made of jello Tell me, is this what it feels like to be happy Love sick and floating on air There are times I want to make it stop it seems so wrong, to feel this way When all I felt for so long was anger and disdain I was despondent and frightened to let anyone inside for fear that you would betray me and bruise me on the outside They tell me I've grown depressed I've made myself weary but oddly enough today is the least day I've felt dreary I can't place it into words I cannot begin to explain so metaphorically speaking You're the only light in the rain I know that without you I could survive But I don't even want to You make me feel most alive I'm not sappy and I hardly ever cry For you, I'd give up my hard ways I used to never care, but for you; I'll try no matter which way the wind sways I pace my room day in and day out Just for the single moment when you tell me what you're about When you tell me you love me You never have to put a ring on my finger I never liked diamonds anyway Just hold me forever And we'll call it a day
