Can I ask you for a favour when you see me dreaming enjoying my slumber as if Im holding eternal peace, just leave me be
Just pass me by, leave me sleeping until the sun sees it fit to kiss me awake, and give me another day so I can try what I couldn’t do yesterday. I feel like I took the stuffing out of my soul and Im running on empty, a mere touch could break my very reality, so my smile isn’t what it used to be, it doesn’t even make me happy.
The world has always been on my shoulders, I just feel like the quality of it changed. But don’t be afraid I will find my way, words took me this far, Im sure they will take me all the way.
Im laying all my burdens down and rereading them in my sleep.
So when you catch me dreaming just pass me by, just tell yourself Im nothing more than an object you need to step over, no need to wake me, the sun will embrace me and till then the moon has me.
Give me another night where the darkness will be ushered in by the light and I am blissfully asleep, Im not in a rush I know that happiness will find me, let me comfort myself with love and find my definition of victory. If you catch me dreaming don’t wake me till Im done.
Let me smile with my eyes closed and prepare for the madness yet to come. Its not your role to disturb my sleep, let me go in and find peace, it might take some time, my scars run deep.
Let me heal, give my heart time to recuperate, Im trying to toughen up the parts that used to be in such a fragile state.
Just pass me over, leave me be, make believe Im not there
I wont judge you, I wont think its because you don’t care
Its because you understand that for me, sleep is peace
It’s a moment where all the noise is forced to cease
And silence is held in fragile hands that tend to shake too much
So let me focus, Ive been known to wake up from a mere touch
So just keep it at watching me sleep
Let me dream, let me enjoy my slumber, let me sleep
Im not something you should concern yourself with
And when Im awake we can talk about it
