I Desire Illusion


Above the stars, 

Is where I choose to reside, 

I prefer living in my own place, 

Because the world has too many rules, 

Which I'm unable to abide, 

 

No more barriers, 

I'm a convict to fate, 

I took a dive into the forbidden sea, 

And drowned my realistic mental state, 

 

Then escaped from the Earth, 

And all its corrupted territories, 

And asked Shame and Tragedy to narrate my stories, 

 

Then took daydreaming because its my ticket to my separate land, 

And rode the blind train because only the passengers there would understand, 

Who I am, why I'm there, 

Where I come from? No, who cares. 

In a few moments, 

I'll be dropped off at Insanity, and at that point, 

No logic will exist, 

It'll lead me on a quick flight to my dreams, 

And my ambition won't resist, 

 

The flight is risky and intense, 

But I'm desperate to forever leave the Earth so I took it. 

All I was able to see were my perfect dreams, 

While the journey there remained twisted and crooked. 

 

So now I'm in the world of my dreams, 

Located above the stars, 

It's an immaculate, joyful, and unbelievably cooperative place, 

Unlike Earth of Mrs, 

Yet though I feel I'm up there, 

My body remains at Earth, 

Where my souls is not at rest, 

And my ambition has no worth,

So in my dreams' world iws where my soul and happiness persists, 

In this world I don't truly exist.
