Built the Same Way

Wishing I could see it in the daylight
Take it for a rewrite
Make it last another few days
Sun is coming up, it doesn’t feel right
Drag me back to real life
Tell me there’s a different way
Feeling like the line is broken
You and I have been cut off
When the everyday has spoken
Have to obey
I’m hiding in the rafters
I’m staying till I’m grey
These hollow ever afters come and
Fast start to fade
We try avoid disaster
It finds us anyway
It doesn’t really matter
We’re all built the same way
Never getting better at the goodbye’s
Tell myself a white lie
Here it is in CMYK
When I think about it it’s so life like
See it in my mind’s eye
Disappearing when I’m awake
Feeling like the line is broken
You and I have been cut off
When the everyday has spoken
Have to obey
I’m hiding in the rafters
I’m staying till I’m grey
These hollow ever afters come and
Fast start to fade
We try avoid disaster
It finds us anyway
It doesn’t really matter
We’re all built the same way
