All the struggles in our life, we didn′t make it past it
All these people looking, thinking we are kinda happy
Book of my life's full of ink, these pages feel so empty
Every page I flip, a demon rise to haunt and tempt me
We′re all gonna die one day but not us all had lived
And the older that I get, the less I understand
As I stare into this mirror, I regret the things I did
Bygones can't be bygones when you're stuck inside your sins

They say life is a dream, but you always stay up
′Cause it′s harder to sleep, when you're afraid of your thoughts
So you don′t wanna dream, because when you wake up
All your demons will creep and will swallow you up

When I look at your face, all I feel is some pity
It's creepy when you smile, but you love when you see me
I hate it when I see you, ′cause then I would see me
You have no idea, I might sound kinda silly
Feels wrong when it's right, I don′t like it that way
But it's where I find comfort, so I think it's okay
When things fall into place, I know then it′d be wrong
′Cause if things aren't wrong, things ain′t fall into place
They don't listen when we "SHUT UP" and when we stay quite
So they′re hear it all wrong, assuming it's pride
We converse with ourselves, they think that I′m lying?
Like the king of the jungle, I'm praying the get it

They say life is a dream, but you always stay up
'Cause it′s harder to sleep, when you′re afraid of your thoughts
So you don't wanna dream, because when you wake up
All your demons will creep and will swallow you up

Yes we know we′re different, but we're so much alike
You have so much experience with this pain in your life
I′m what people experience, I'm the pain that′s in mine
It's why I lock all the doors, so they're staying inside
See my life is full of drama and the disk is broken
When it plays to a point, it opens and closes
It restarts right again, I said the CD was broken?
Yeah, welcome to my cinema and here is your popcorn
You′re screaming ′cause you're tired of just staying inside
Then you ′member why you locked yourself, there's tears in your eyes
You talk to these walls and you sit with this mic
Tryna right all the wrongs that is haunting your life
Raise the curtain, drop the burden
If it′s certain that you're working
To pursue these demons lurking
We′ll determine if your urgent
As the persons in this ward and
Put a shirt on, go to sleep
"I beg your pardon", nighty nighty
And then the surgeon pierce the needle
In my neck

They say life is a dream, but you always stay up
'Cause it's harder to sleep, when you′re afraid of your thoughts
So you don′t wanna dream, because when you wake up
All your demons will creep and will swallow you up
They say life is a dream, but you always stay up
'Cause it′s harder to sleep, when you're afraid of your thoughts
So you don′t wanna dream, because when you wake up
All these demons will creep and will swallow you up
