"I'll be here by the ocean just waiting for proof that there's
Sunsets and silhouette dreams
While my sand castle falls like the ashes of cigerettes and
Every wave drags me to sea
I could stand here for hours just to ask God the question
'Is everyone here make-believe?'
With a tear in his voice he said
'Son Thats the question,'
Does this deafening silence mean nothing to no one but me?"
And so those are the dreams I hold in reality's light, just pretending that it will all change. Keeping my heart turned away from the truth and my eyes on the prize, because it's the only thing worth seeing.
My second biggest slip up is flinching and glancing back at what could have been... then looking forward and seeing all that could be, but not for me.
Even worse is the fate I shall likely suffer when I finally open my eyes. My ungrateful regard to everything so far will come alive. And when all I took for granted is one day gone, I'll know it's true worth. Though I never have before. My heart will finally feel all the hurt, but mostly the regret of the predicament trapping me inside.
