I Thought I Was Ready

The way you sent my whole life turning
I know I've spent a lifetime yearning
Your words would set my mind in motion
Your eyes could just imply a notion
I'd just lose my mind

My manufactured opponent can't capture a moment like you
Through the tear in the night, only you shine a light on my hope
And in just a few dozen frames, as I whisper your name to the night

Oh, delusion
I'm drowning in my false nostalgia
A memory I can't attach to real life (You don't want me)
Could your current sweep me under
Underneath me, real life's creeped in (You don't believe)
Like the green-eyed beast inside us
Darling, hide us from the future (You don't)
From the real life
Delusion, I could use you right now (She said, "leave me alone")

When you give me your attention
I'm obsessed; I get addicted to your worldview
Your perception, and no others
I want to see the world in your colours for a while
I'm lost inside the subways of your mind
(Hope you don't mind)

Then you said we'd only hurt each other
But, darling, hurting doesn't seem so bad
It's nothing next to The Nothing
Darling, the worst you'll ever have
Darling, meet me in the rose garden
Do you doubt me? Darling, darling, doubt me
Meet me in the rose garden
Darling
I just want to believe
Darling, would you lie to my face
To give me some hope

Tomorrow gets better, but I'm not getting through today
