THIS REALITY
I was running out of love
Then I was running up too much
I can't keep it in line
But I sure can keep in touch
Situations all combine
'Til I don't know who is what
Calling "what's her name?"
And the likes of such and such
Sometimes love feels like a crime
Or at least a misdemeanor
I wonder which is mine
Who's the dream within the dreamer
Don't want to waste your time
Don't want to have to linger
I'm looking for "the one"
Not a ring upon your finger
Why is this so hard?
I really need to know
I'm running out of time
For the likes of so-and-so
I cannot find a map
To know which way to go
I could take the highway
But what if you took
The low road?
This situation -
Could start to get so ugly
I just want to raise you
Like an angel up above me
Caught in the trap
Of the fact you look so lovely
Don't want to go back
If the paths been laid before me
I'm over here
While another one ignores me
Think I got it clear
But that one makes her
Want my company
So I turn around
Just to be sent
Back off
As quickly
Take your advice
But then you give back
What you're restricting
That indecisiveness
Is not the way to be
There was no convincing
In the layers of the dream
Instant recognition
Loving ardently
Is how the me and you
Come together as a We
Maybe that was the problem
The all need to be one
Cannot win the battle
Without a battle to be won
We need to come together
Cause my heart is rent to own
Don't want to be lost
In this place I should be known
Love is blinded by the things
It doesn't want to see
So it's nice that you have come along
And started to see me
I think I'm worth the trouble
I think I'm worth the choice
I like to hear the tremble
I infuse into your voice
I like to see that smile
That you give back to me
I was pushed to you on trial
Had to fight for everything
But now it's coming clear
Now that you are coming clean
I've waited this whole while
So that we could maybe be
It's nice to know that these
Were way more than simple dreams
I followed them, pursued them
And I don't regret a thing
So many layers and subtleties
Such Delicious intricacies
And now I know
What I've been fighting for
Is in this reality
