The Secret Life Of A Dream

When will you come home to me
I've said this too many times
Did you forget your keys
You can't count how many times i've cried
You know I'd forgive you, if you
Admitted that you made mistakes, but
You don't come round here no more and
My heart got lost in the wake.

Why wasn't the love I gave to you
Not good enough to get us through
Why wasn't I the one to
Be the one you wanted to say "forever and I do"
Because, lately I've been stuck thinking
Could've spent my whole life drinking
In these promises that you denied me
All my life I've tried, but still can't see.

Did you cut the strings without regrets
Did it affect you like your cigarettes
When you breathed a sigh, and exhaled our death
Did you think of me, or what was best
I still think of you when I shouldn't be
Yeah, I tell myself "Boy, get happy"
But you're still in the back of my head
The failure that just won't stay dead.

And now you're a million miles away
Do you ever think of me
Do you remember that very first day
When you kissed my lips so softly
And tell me,
Does he do the things I swore to do
Does he lie the way you always do
When you lay beside him and kiss his mouth
Does it kill you slowly, you fucking louse

Will you be here in the morning
When I open my eyes
I see you in my dreams sometimes
and to this day you still deny
That you did it because you were unhappy
And you never meant to cause me harm
And you wish that we could still be friends
But you couldn't kill the alarm

I'm still waiting for you to come home
To hear your keys at our front door
Like a white knight you'll come and save me
Take me back to a time before
You know that I'd forgive you, if you
Took me in your arms and promised to
Kill the demons and make all my dreams come true
But your promises were never your follow through.

I guess that a dream will die completely
When someone else accepts my heart
