Woke Up

Last night I woke up I had been living a dream And for a while it seemed So real. Caught in the moment Mirages appeared in front of my face Of what it would be like to embrace Love. I needed to wake up I filled my heart and mind with hope Living a lie that I’d soon choke On and be disappointed. I’m making the same mistakes Why can’t I learn from the past? Why won’t these things ever last? Am I doing something wrong? I am awake Although I’m broken, my mind is clear My heart is hard there’s not a single tear On my cheek. I am used to this Feeling like nothing goes right Looking so deeply with nothing in sight In the end. For me this is normal I’ll just forget about this one Move on and then some One will come along again. A cycle I can’t help but repeat I never learn, I never seek A solution.
