Real life is nothing like the 3D movies.
Happy endings better on the screen.
If dance be random, then we should be groovie.
If friends be loyal, then mine should be keen.
I've seen their light shine brighter than a star,
The light that I want, I don't see it here.
Hiding in dark theatres is where dreamers are,
Than sitting home and dwelling in my fears.
I truly love my family. But I can feel
That even family life cannot be freeing.
Twisted humans I've not seen in movie reels.
Yet in my life, that's all I'm ever seeing.
And here I am and I am still alive.
That's all I have to bring inside my time.
