As I lie in filthy sheets
No longer room for you and me
Streaks of blue of fractured you
The me I wish I could amount to
The warm embrace of being alone
Wrapped around me like my favorite coat
Tread the halls like some kind of ghost
Are you deafened by the sound?
I wish I could be someone’s dream
Instead I’m ripped at the seams
Instead I’m not what I seem
I wish I could be someone’s dream
Instead there’s more to write
Instead I’m never right
Oh why?
Half the time I’m not aware
Of who is here and what strikes where
Tell me am I supposed to care
When there’s no more getting down
I wish I could be someone’s dream
Instead I’m ripped at the seams
Instead I’m not what I seem
I wish I could be someone’s dream
Instead there’s more to write
Instead I’m never right
Oh why?
I wish I could be someone’s dream
Instead I’m ripped at the seams
Instead I’m not what I seem
I wish I could be someone’s dream
Instead there’s more to write
Instead I’m never right
Maybe next time
