I sleep but only to dream
I awaken but only to wish
I wish to only slip into dream
For life is the worse dream
And if life is but a dream
Why will I not awaken
When will I awaken
What will I awaken to
When you think you want it
You think of those you love
You try to find reasons to continue
Hiding the sorrow you hope will fade
When you really want it
You no longer care
You withdraw from those around you
So to make as little splash as possible
When you think you want it
You cry because of the pain inside
You wish you had made a bigger impact
And in life had accomplished more
When you really want it
It seems as though the pain subsides
You wish but to have never existed
And what once was crazy, rational
If this is but a dream
I wish to awaken, I hope to awaken
I pray to awaken, please wake me
Please God wake me from this
