If only it was a dream
The scene playing out before me,
But a dream wouldn’t hurt like this
I wish nothing would hurt like this

The scene playing out before me
Tears rushing down my cheeks
I wish nothing would hurt like this
This empty feeling in my soul and chest

Tears rushing down my cheeks
The failure, the embarrassment
The empty feeling in my soul and chest
This unreal scene worse than a horrible, horrible dream

The failure the embarrassment
I just can’t take it anymore
This unreal scene worse than a horrible, horrible dream
How I wish it would all just go away

I just can’t take it anymore
The reality is settling in
How I wish it would just all go away
But this is reality not a dream

The reality is settling in
A dream just wouldn’t hurt like this
But this is reality not a dream
If only it was a dream
