dreamt i was with an angel
awoke with a devil
dreamt i was happy
awoke with depression
dreamt i was loved
awoke with enemies
dreamt i was in heaven
awoke in reality

people believe in the government
people believe in the second coming
people believe in the afterlife
but most don’t believe in the most important thing
themselves

look me in the eye
just this one time
i won’t be brushed aside like i have been before
no more
my heart is broken and my hands are blistered
i’ve worked a bloody lifetime
tell me, what have i to show?
i just wanted you to know

is anyone home?
is anyone there?
can there be anyone there?
is home anyone?
anyone is there?
can anyone there be there?
