Good Dream Bad Dream

I've always been lost in reflection
A sadness laced with affection
I keep it like a secret
You see it as a weakness

Your problem is buried in the past
All those good things that never seem to last
You try, but you can't feel them
I try, but can't repeat them

I'm tired holding on to a good dream
Where you cried. So happy to see me
Where you'd die trying to please me

You're tired waking up from a bad dream
Shallow breathing and broken heartbeats
Where you'd try. But no one can reach

We fought but we have been defeated
A high line is not what we needed
Uncertainty is not a feeling
You pressed while i was retreating

Our problems are buried in the sand
On the beach where we both used to stand
I feel it but I can see it
You see it but you can't believe it

I'm tired holding on to a good dream
Where you cried. So happy to see me
Where you'd die trying to please me

You're tired waking up from a bad dream
Shallow breathing and broken heartbeats
Where you'd try. But no one can save me
