Tired of Dreaming by Darrell Ames 6/18/02

I’ve been awake for oh so long, but I’m still dreaming,
Of places I will never be, and of people I will never 
Meet, pretending things are all right, when every minuet,
Is a struggle and a fight, and I’ve been awake for oh so long
But /chorus x2/I’m tired of pretending I’m something I’m not,
Oh so tired of pretending everything is well, tired of pre-
Tending and tired of being scared, I’ve been awake for oh so
Long, but I’m so tired, I think I’ve been here for way too long/
I wake up screaming, but I’m still dreaming, force fed emotions,
And unsolvable solutions, help me get my rest, an maze that I’m
Lost in, a haze, I spend to much time dreaming these days, and I’ve
Been awake for oh so long but /chorus x2/
Think it’s time I finally woke up, but I only know how to live,
In my dream …world, but I’m tired of dreaming
