Our reverie
We were young and we believed
that there was so much more to see.
We were told to be bold,
to be strong and stand forever tall.
But they forgot to mention, what it feels like when you fall.
When the world around you just don't seem to care at all.
Will you still stand strong
when there's nowhere to belong?
Will you still carry on while everything around us
feels out of place and wrong?
We were young and we believed
that we were going to be free.
Fighting for a happy after
which was poisioned for the start.
Can't we just be strangers and forget?
Can we erase the thing we once had?
Pretend it was just a plesant reverie?
For the one you once loved,
is a person i can no longer be.
