Living alone in the Nightmare
It’s not easy when you’re the only one crying
When everyone is smiling but you’re slowly dying
Everything in your life is falling apart
While to everyone it’s the start
Of a new story to talk about
Some may laugh and others may listen in doubt
But only you will live in the nightmare alone
Wishing you were nothing but a stone
Looking back and feeling so small
In a world that’s not fair at all
If you make a single mistake
Then you’re left with nothing to take
Or no one left on your side
You can try to run but you can never hide
Apparently this is reality
Everything you say is understood differently
Your heart feels far away, gone to disappear
Your mind is there but no longer near
You know its reality because everything’s the same
But you were too caught up in the dream
Never realizing it was too good to be true
Now you’re stuck not knowing what to do
As everything continues to contradict
You’re still living in never endless conflict
And nothing will ever be bright
Or ever seem to work out right
What’s to come next you never know
And the answer is coming too slow
You can’t just sit back and wait
Yet you know you can’t change fate
And every day is coming with a new attack
It’s getting harder to fight back
Because as the sun comes out after a rainy day
The rain inside will never go away
It’s something buried deep
Something to hard to sweep
But only you can feel all this
There isn’t one moment that you can miss
Because this is the life you chose to make
Out of the decisions you decided to take
You could try to fix things with one chance
But nobody will let you enhance
If only you could go back in time
You would never do the same crime
But then again that’s why you learn
So you never have to return
It’s not the end of the world if you fall back
Just try to get on the right track
Follow one straight path
And never forget to have faith
That tomorrow will always be a brighter day
Even if you on your own way
And nobody else can feel your pain
But time is there to help it drain
