Night falls
I let my guards down
and when I look under the steel plates
I see blood
seeping through the bandages
The bus rolled by stores and coffee shops
I remember the way we used to laugh
the way we used to walk
down the street
the way we used to act
in the crowd
silly, but it didn't matter
the world was just you and I
and it was perfect
almost
The alarm rang
you woke up
one moment ago you were in the air
now you are back on the ground
there's a life waiting for you to live
you say thank you
it was a nice dream
you say sorry
but there's no place for you in my life
I can't tell anymore
the difference between dream
and reality
I don't know what was
and what wasn't
but I know
when morning comes
I'll bandage up
again
and I'll be fine
