Entering this realm
that we call “Reality”.
There are things that you can do
that are just too hard for me.
I’m waiting for my halo,
but you’ve already got your wings.
Fly away, go fly away!
You’re not held down by strings.
The ground is shaking,
I feel like I’m sinking,
right into my mind.
The Earth is breaking
because I’m thinking
that I’m the only one left behind.

Looking at you.
You’re heading towards a world where skies are blue.
Looking up above.
It’s a new world powered by the hearts that know love.
It might appear the same here.
But it’s not what it seems.
I live in the pits of nightmares,
hidden under the world of dreams.

Crumbling under all the thoughts,
and falling through the cracks.
Is it possible to believe
that I will ever make it back?
There are black hands that drag me
down to the abyss.
Only my eyes are free
to watch you ascend into bliss.
I used to see that world
that you are about to go.
You will feel the summer’s breeze
And smile at all the dancing snow.
This feeling is so devastating,
I feel like I’m fading,
right into my mind.
The world is disintegrating,
my delayed fate has stopped waiting.
You’re free and I’m so confined.

Looking at you.
You’re heading towards a world where skies are blue.
Looking up above.
It’s a new world powered by the hearts that know love.
It might appear the same here.
But it’s not what it seems.
I live in the pits of nightmares,
hidden under the world of dreams.

While you get up,
with your eyes ajar.
I hope you know how
lucky you are.
There’s my shaking body.
It doesn’t want to sleep.
I have my pulse but it’s
my soul is what I want to keep.
I may look like
any other person at all
but I’ll stop moving and
when I fall,
I’ll go into the depths
for one last scream.
I’ll be my last nightmare
and you’ll swear it was a dream.
Until the next morning, you’ll swear it was a dream.
I find it funny that I'm writing this at 1 in the morning. If you have trouble knowing what the song's about: it's about how the popular belief of dreams is typically this warm, fuzzy feeling but the narrator is having the opposite experience where he's afraid of his subconscious.
