Lines and Times

The things I never told you
Fairytale visions I couldn't live up to
But I thought if I wait, it'll all come true

Now I'm a broken mess
With lines and times I keep trying to undress
But if I'm new, I'll forget the rest

I'm puking visions of my past
Dry heaving memories that are only shadows cast
Too sick to realize what did and did not last

And I can't sleep at night
The medication helps, but the feeling isn't right
If I don't, I have nightmares I'm too paranoid to fight

Now everybody knows my cause
I thought that if I told them I'd eliminate some flaws
Turns out all I did was shine a light on things I saw

Or didn't see
Either way, the vision sticks with me
And I miss who I used to be
But the fairytale is no longer my reality
