Disappointment and a shattered lie

How much longer must we wait to die?

A broken dream and an empty promise

An attempted goal set way to high

There is only one way to survive

And that’s to live one big lie.

Our prescription bought reality

My escape from the hollow lies

A prescription bought reality

My dreams take hold and I’m no longer hidden behind locked doors.

A forgotten desire for an empty wasteland

A long lost apology found before the end

One last chance to set things right

And this will all disappear with the light

And as the darkness begins to take hold

Once again my mind is sold…to

Our prescription bought reality

My escape from the hollow lies

A prescription bought reality

My dreams take hold and I’m no longer hidden behind locked doors.

Soon it all fades and none of it will last

But I’ll still live inside the dream prescribed

A reality to harsh to face

Softened by the ending of each day

Just one small space in my minds oblivion

Rented out to a dream unforgotten

Our prescription bought reality

My escape from the hollow lies

A prescription bought reality

My dreams take hold and I’m no longer hidden behind locked doors.

In my prescription bought reality.
