Waiting wanting falling fading
Loving living dying hating
Eating leaving starving staying

Backwards on life, twisted in death
Can't even fall for fear of a step
Lost in thoughts I cannot find
Can't realise I'm losing my mind
Spending all time on things too small
Losing my grip on importance of all

Cannot forget

Cannot erase

Chasing regret

I quicken the pace

Living in the past,  I try to wake up.
Reality is just too fast, it's left me in the dust.
Living in a dream between waking and asleep,
But never actually waking up.
Life isn't what it seems
I know that I am wasting time.
That much is clear to me.
But I can't get out of this,
I'm blind and cannot see.
Living in a dream between waking and asleep.
But I'm still not waking up.
Please...
Just let me be.
