if I must live in reality
don't make me dream
and if I must dream
don't take me back to reality
on their own either is fine
it's just the contrast that pains me
some of my dreams
they have come true
like shooting starts
they shine their light
then they fall through
those moments so bright
are not out of view
why even bother wishing?
I get what I asked for
and still it won't do
fantasies lead me to resent reality
reality leads me to resent the fantasies
don't tell me, don't tell me
those stories I want to believe
don't make me, don't make me
long for what I don't even need
let me be happy with the love that I have
I want to be grateful and stop feeling sad
if I must live in this world as it is
I wish to accept it, to consider it magic
release the delusions that never did serve me
reject expectations, conventions of beauty
cause real love is beautiful enough
real love is beautiful enough
