It always put me on the edge
To think of all the spoiled lives
But then I'm one step further
Not sure if I'll survive myself
Reality is sometimes stranger than fiction
Whatever happens in my dreams
I know it can't be worse than that
So I prefer to sleep
I am searching without vision
For the answers in the dirt
I am waiting just for nothing
For the day that I'll be hurt
You're the ceiling which I'm floating
When I lose myself in you
I am feeling this intention
I communicate with you
I am yearning without vision
For the day when I can wake
I am thinking just for nothing
About that specific day
You're the night, you're the dark side
Of the day you'll never see
You're the past, past everlasting
In this shared one day with me
You're the hand that I rejected
But I can't forgive myself
I am selfish and I'm hurting
To think of me and to die for
Reality is sometimes stranger than fiction
Whatever happens in my dreams
I know it can't be worse than that
So I prefer to sleep
Tomorrow I don't know where I'll be
I need some place to go now
So do you know the way I feel?
I shall not give up my belief
You're the lock I never opened
'Cause I threw away the key
I've been closed within my own thoughts
That will never set me free
You're the hand that I rejected
But I can't forgive myself
I am selfish and I'm hurting
To think of me and to die for
You're the quest until the answer
And the doubt there'll never be
Any hope in this redemption
You've created this in me
You're the hand that I rejected
But I can't forgive myself
I am selfish and I'm hurting
To think of me and to die for
Serenity is taking over all I am
It gives me peace and calm
I see my visions and my destiny
Why should I bleed and pay for others' greed?
We consciously signed our own sentence of death
How can you go on? Do you forget
What we have learned from the past?
We can't go on killing ourselves
And with us all the rest
Why can't you see? Don't you regret?
Reality is sometimes stranger than fiction
Whatever happens in my dreams
I know it can't be worse than that
So I prefer to sleep
I am alone with all my thoughts
Alone without a home and
I lost the thing I needed most
I feel I can't survive this fall
