The Other Life

I open my eyes
She's lying next to me
She is all I need
So why can't I see?

Her soft hair is fading
Her ruby lips are gone
I'm in such a daze
Something has gone wrong

Oh no, I know, that, this is a fantasy
It fades, I wake, and, I face reality
Pleasure cuts you like a knife
When you wake up and you face
The other life

I can't complain
Good things coming my way
What an amazing world
What a beautiful day

But I don't remember this place
I don't remember your name
Am I going crazy?
No, the feeling's come again

Oh no, I know, that, this is a fantasy
It fades, I wake, and, I face reality
Pleasure cuts you like a knife
When you wake up and you face
The other life

Why... Oh why
Do I suffer from this happiness?
The constant reminder of
What I could have if I wasn't such a mess

Why... Oh why
Do my dreams wish to torture me?
I thought my life was perfect, but
Is this a warning I can't see?

It's not true
It's not true
