A Dose of Reality Lyrics by Of Reverie

The Dreamcatcher

2012

I'm still not quite sure how I'm supposed to word this
It wouldn't be right to call this perfect
But what I can confess is kiss is infinite
It lingers on my lips leaving me wanting more of it
I've spent a hundred sleepless nights
Fighting for this, waiting by your side
But what I had to offer wasn't enough
You traded me and fell for his bluff
I can see the poison in your eyes
Happiness is just a part of his lies
When will you life the veil from your sights?
That hides the fact that you're not alright
I hope you get a dose of fucking reality
You know there's no coming back from this
I can't believe that I never saw this coming
And in some ways I can almost blame myself for this
Do it over and over it only gets your body numbing
You traded it all for such a cheap fix
No not this time, not under this pretence
I'm tired of saying unanswered prayers through the night
Keep your filthy promises, your only defence
I've got a few more things to say. This is goodbye
You look at this with unopened eyes, yeah
Just pop another pill and fade away with the sky
I did every little thing I could do
But my hopes aren't as high as you are when he's with you
I fought through the sands of the hourglass
And cursed the wind for the time that passed
If only you knew that fate was against you
You'd have no purpose and God be with him too
I'll surrender my eyes to this undying fate of mine
And walk away leaving you behind
I watched you fall and lose your light
But my hopes can't be the high you need tonight
