This Is Real

I am only truly at peace
When I am quietly asleep
I have only truly forgotten
When its impossible to weep

In my dreams
Life is a gift
In my dreams
I slowly drift

The only place where youre invisible
The only place where Ive forgotten
The only time my heart is beating
Only place I dont feel rotten

Right before the moment I disappear
Into my safe dreamland
You appear
And there you stand

Until my brain can no longer function
Until my eyelids close
Slow, steady breaths
No more ghosts

I wake up
Smiling, happy
I wake up
Unaware and cofused

In a moment it hits me
Cold, freezing air
Let me be
It blows sharply through my hair

Go away
Ill go back to sleep
Go away
You lowlife creep

It all comes flashing back
This is real
My heart turns black
Back to the way I really feel

My only escape route
Is in my dreams
No need to shout
Hell only muffle the screams.

Must return to sleep.
