Lost in a dream,
Is there no tomorrow?
Don't come back, You've never tried to before,
Only me, drawing you in,
Painting a picture of us on the clouds,
There's no forever now.

Someday soon I'll look up and think,
Was it worth it, Did I really mean for all this,
Dense. I hate the look in your eyes when I try to relate.
How can I try to relate now?
How can I try when all you ever said,
reflected in the image of me.

Try to tell you,
You won't listen,
I'm lost in a dream,
There's no way out now,
Only forward maybe it will all work out,
Have a nice life.

The author's comments:
This piece is written about a person that I could depict as a friend at times but his life would get so complicated there was no hope for me to try and know him. It's too bad it ended with hating each other because when I see him I know he needs a friend, and I could use one too through him.
