Our Reality


Don't leave me behind

If you go

Take me with you

Wherever you are is home

I don't want to be

The last to know

Not anymore

I don't want to be alone

When you're so close

This time

I'm going to get it right

This time

I'm going to fight

For every moment I gave away

 

So afraid

All the time

Never reaching far enough

But running

Far away

Breathing 

Laughing out loud

I wanted to love you

So badly

I needed this

More then you know

I was so afraid

Needed you to know

That wherever you go

I want to be

With you

You and me

 

Don't ever want to know

What it's iike

Not to know

To miss you

Never again

You breathe me in

And I fall hard ans fast

Lightening speed

You and me

We hit the concrete

And for the first time

It feels right

It feels good

Like it should

Real and raw

Baring it all

You and me

On our feet

Firmly planted in reality

Here and now

And suddenly

Dreaming has nothing

On our reality
