how could this be after all you promised me

my everything and I let you in so

don't expect me to turn my cheek again

last time you broke the skin

nothing ever works out right so why would it now

my hopes get up so high they fall and shatter

and shatter with what's left of confidence



so here I am

locked away in a perfect dream

take a look around I have everything

and the more I stare

the more I feel so empty

cause soon I'll wake up with nothing

its just a dream

I can't bring any of it back with me

(go back to sleep)



cut out my eyes before they tell my mind

what they just saw

I'd rather be naive

so lets play pretend and I'll believe in anything



so here I am

locked away in a perfect dream

I take a look around I see I have everything

and the more I stare

the more I feel so empty

cause soon I'll wake up with nothing

I swear this time I will not be fooled

if it is too good it is not true

you broke the branch

and your falling down

but no one's waiting for you on the ground

to break your fall
