Lately it's been hard to tell the difference between dreams and reality.
Maybe one day I'll get my head out of the clouds, be who I want to be. I guess we'll see.
One day I will finally see clearly.

Off The Ground

I have been lying to myself for the past year.
Guess you could say the future’s got me scared.
Running from myself could only work for so long.
If I pretend for long enough, maybe I’ll truly feel strong.
It’s been a long time since I could lay my head and relax for a while.
It’s been a long time since I’ve looked into the mirror and seen a smile.
And I’m a little hesitant to get up off the ground,
for fear of things being worse next time around.
Somebody pick me up.

Some people and some things are eye-opening.
If this situation has taught me one thing,
it’s that staying in the past can’t be part of any plan
the rear view just deceives you.
And since when does making things awkward
constitute bending over backwards?
This has gone on for far too long.
And if you’re going to point fingers,
I suggest you find a mirror, you’re the only one to blame.
Stay out of this.

Absence

Last night I dreamt you were walking on water
I wanted so bad to swim out to meet you.
When I woke, don’t think I’ve ever laughed harder.
I laughed until the irony wore off.
I’d do anything to see you as a stranger again.
Absence makes the heart unwise.
If I don’t see you, I’ll be fine.
