• Dreaming While I Wake
    It's 3 AM,
    and I'm drifting,
    staring at a luminous screen,
    I'm wondering,
    what am I doing and why am I here,
    it's times like these when my future isn't clear,
    that place between when you're asleep and awake,
    time that you see yourself so hard to take,
    sleepless now it all falls apart,
    how in the world did I get this far,
    now I dream,
    I am who I want to be,
    that I am free,
    life's no longer a mystery,
    I'm a hero on the big screen,
    romantic hopelessly,
    I'm a soldier, pioneer,
    I have no pain, no fear,
    No nightmares, no tears,
    I wake,
    I am so alone,
    I realize,
    I am dreaming while I wake.
