Written during a rough point in my life.
For those who love great music!
Hello, this is Arrow (TB). Just a side project for me to post my songs.
Story behind the song
I used various literature refrences from a political science course I took and mixed it in with a few others to express my feelings.
Lyrics
My Reality
December 28th, 2005
I never wanted it to go this way,
But the prince says fortune flows like a river,
And who can argue with royalty.
I wish I could go against my feelings,
But this monster rules over my nature.
I fear that I’m no David,
And if I were, I’ve lost my sling.
I’m tired of heartache,
False promises,
Of bitter sweetness.
Please just let me sleep,
Lose my reality.
I wonder what really drives me to the edge.
Is it easy to see from the heavenly city?
I sorry, but I’ve lost my way.
I know I’ll never find my faith.
Even a saint has to be lost before he’s found.
I know that I’ll never preach.
And if I did, no one would listen.
I’m tired of heartache
False promises,
Of bitter sweetness.
Please just let me sleep,
Lose my reality.
They said that life was a fairytale,
But I’ve skipped ahead and read the end,
And I don’t like what I see.
Do I have the strength to change it now?
Or will I destroy what’s already there?
I’m no visionary,
And if I were, I fear I’m blind.
I’m so tired of these books,
Tired of these lies,
Of selfish sacrifice.
Can’t you let me sleep?
Lose my reality.
