"Give love as though it could be never ending. Receive love as it could be almost over".- Me =]


This isn’t a dream, it’s a nightmare
When I scream I’m still standing right here
In this abyss, with all these feelings seeming like fear

And I really don’t care if they’re not
Everyone telling me to look for God
But really I just want everyone to stop

Wish I could turn this trip off right now
Wish I could stop this nightmare like now
Wish I could shut this pain down, but how

Reality is telling me its not going away
I have to live to fight another day
I can’t pause this game, I have to play

And if I don’t what’s the cost?

What have I, not already lost?
What have I, not already lost?

And if I don’t what’s the cost?

No, I guess I have no choice, but to move on
For my family, I have to be strong
I guess life will go on, just like this moving song

Time will, and can only tell
Why I’m in this dream, cursed by this spell
And I hope there’s a heaven, because this feels like hell

This isn’t a dream it’s a nightmare
When I scream I’m still standing right here
In this abyss, and although it might not seem fair

I’m going to do what I must
I’m going to hold my ground, and trust
That I’ll make it out alive, in the name of love

This is a song inspired by my girlfriend, a girl going through some of the hardest times of her life, yet she is so courageous, so bold, an amazing woman.
