Dreamer

I misinterpreted the words you said
I thought it was happiness that you fed
Until I realized there was another
The shape of you that I once knew grew distant
While I waited around for you with eyelids heavy
You headed for the back door where he was ready
I'm tired of every road leading back to you
You said you were my heaven
But you delivered hell instead
I try to TikTok myself to sleep
But nothing seems to creep that sleep to me
She was the girl of my dreams
Now that's the only time I see he
I'm trying to live my life
But I'm feeling like I'm on pause
Driving down these freeways
Hoping for a semi-truck to lay me to rest
I closed my eyes just for a second
Only to open to a world without you
I can still feel you behind my eyelids when I lay down to sleep
I never thought I'd have to forget your face
Stuck at home
Alone
Sheltered in place
Doing everything I can to erase
All the memories of you and me
I guess I just refused to see
That I loved you more than you loved me
Your words hang in my head
Along with all words we left unsaid
I have this tendency to let people down
Let me drown down with all the rest
I just want someone that I can skate into the sunset with
Like a stray cat
I just want someone to call home.
The depression hits
The kind that overrides all your senses
I say you mean nothing to me
The memories that reside prove otherwise
Was loving you worth the emptiness of you leaving
She said goodbye
Break a leg out there
And I did
I haven't been able to move since
