Am i dreaming?
Is this a nightmare?
Could this be true
Or just a midnight scare?
Is this real?
Is it all pretend?
What is the difference
Between feeling your love
And knowing it's all a lie?
I don't know anymore
My body gives out at night
Wakes with no energy
I am drained in my sleep
You must be feeding on this
Gaining your strength
From all my weaknesses
That would explain why
You sleep just fine
While my blank eyes
Stare at the morning sky
Almost willing myself
To fall asleep
But never return
