Welcome To My Nightmare

I have hit a point in my life that’s unfair,
And I say to you, welcome to my nightmare.
My decisions have all become so stale,
Continuing like this I will surely fail.
I expect to become nothing, why?
Probably because I’m always high.
I need to find a way to quit,
I drag myself out of this pit.
There is no one left to care for me,
Maybe I’m blind and I just can’t see.

Now is the time, to change my mind,
Stick to myself, keep being kind,
Quit masking it all,
Before it’s too late and I fall.
And now I believe it’s feeling true,
I think I’m falling for you.

When I see you, I’m overwashed with guilt,
Like it’s my fault the rose began to wilt.
I wish you weren’t out of my reach,
Or I didn’t feed from you, like a human leech.
I can’t stop, feeling better when you’re around.
Like I don’t belong six feet in the ground.
You’re the only thing that makes me want to change,
And get out of this angry, masking cage.
When you smile because of something I say,
I feel like I’m being carried away.

Now is the time, to change my mind,
Stick to myself, and draw the line,
Quit masking it all,
Before it’s too late and I fall.
Now it feels so true,
I’m really falling for you.

You are a model of two types of beauty,
A gorgeousness unrivaled and striking personality.
I feel worthless, but something that I know,
For you, in my words, there is no, no.
I don’t know how or why, but when I see you there,
I feel like I can start to care,
Welcome, to my nightmare.

Now is the time, to change my mind,
Stick to myself and jump the line,
Quit masking it all,
Before it’s too late and I fall.
Now believing it is true,
I was falling, but now.. I love you.

Life seems unfair,
No one seems to care,
Then I see you standing there,
All I do is stare.
Welcome, to my nightmare.
