ThisIsDreampunk - Windows

Open up these windows to the world
And again you’ll see
A perfect future, so much more
Than just you and me
It might not be what I saw in my head
But I’m better off alive here than
Somewhere else dead
Tomorrow’s not a time, it’s a place
Look how far we’ve come
This journey’s not over
We’ve been waiting here for so long
And every day, a new cycle awaits
You think we’re running out of time
But I know we won’t be late
It’s all back and forth, somebody give me the truth
I’m so far down, and I just want to know
Is it too much to ask for? I know I’ll come through
For the sake of me, just open up your window
So maybe, we faded, we drifted apart
Windows became mirrors, couldn’t tell the end from the start
The cycle was born, tension higher with every rotation
Too bad all my experiences get funneled through this thing I call my creation
I could repeat the same routine every day without a break, 'cause
I am on a break away from all the things I took away
The repetition, save me from the grave that I’ve dug myself into
All the things I hate about myself that I can’t let stick with you
I’m a lock without a key, you’re not gonna get inside of me, I
Thought the eleven I manufactured would be enough for me
I should have known that I’ll never be good enough for myself
Torn down and rebuilt by me, I don’t belong to anyone else
One day It’ll all make sense
These things I said
But at what expense?
One day I’ll be free from this
I’ll escape from the abyss
But who does it benefit?
Open up these windows to the world
And again you’ll see
A perfect future, so much more
Than just you and me
It might not be what I saw in my head
But I’m better off alive here than
Somewhere else dead
Tomorrow’s not a time, it’s a place
Look how far we’ve come
This journey’s not over
We’ve been waiting here for so long
And every day, a new cycle awaits
You think we’re running out of time
But I know we won’t be late
