To Once More Dream
Let it be once more... I begin
To let go and to hold on
I want to compose realities into dreams
I want to live in a world I do not belong
Finding a self is never hard
It’s trying to become that makes it so
The world exacts for us to tear apart
Which being you... you’ll enfold?
Straying to become an individual
To be or never be may only be
Striving to regardlessly be exceptional
Are we all living for others to see?
A realist, a dreamer... either neither
Striving too hard for dreams to no more remember
Have you forgotten to once be an achiever?
Or has time begotten rather... a believer?
Shall I once more begin?
Did I let go or have I held on?
I want to compose my world of dreams
Living in a world I do not belong
