Stumbling into the in between Unseen except in dream I swear I saw the devil in my empty glass of jealous need Can it show, can it heal my afflicted side? It’s a lie. I know fake Tell me to wake Say it’s ok Am I trapped in pretended days? All time I’d waste Poison heartfelt tastes May I just rewind this distorted break? I’ll show up, but no one waits Looks like I fell behind Traded my place to never stand in line Free only in my mind A crashing ocean wave Breezes whispering my troubled name Trapped inside my own mistakes Pretending to be me with my own face I know fake Are you sure I’m really awake? I made it in time only to find they’d never wait Have we settled for an indifferent shade of a forgotten fate? Searching for my own place Appear to disappear from here Dodging every unclear fear You can almost feel the breeze Every detail creating my picture I call free If they could just only see. Evade the betrayal for illusions All confusion The mental intrusion. It’s not too late Alter fate Take back your own face Rip your exit from this maze Look closely, listen to everyone, do you hear, can you see? Just a badly painted reality Escape the pain Walk away from fake And ask yourself………………………… Are you awake? |
