The Men In Your Dreams

Whispered fears in the quiet night

Searching for truth but losing the fight

Why am I trapped in this shadowed mind?

Looking for answers I can't seem to find

Hands extended, hoping you'll see

But you deny what’s inside me

Can’t you feel the ache, the silent plea?

Broken pieces of who I used to be

Caught in this quest, so restless and free

Yearning for honesty, longing to be

Why are you the only one that can't understand?

I've been reaching out, trying to hold your hand

Can’t accept that anyone could truly be

As honest and kind as the men in your dreams

You’re So distant and so far away

Living in the fear of yesterday

(Verse 2)

I’m not gonna beg, I won’t play the part

Of the guy who waits forever for a piece of your heart

But it’s a tragedy, really, a total waste of time

It’s so obvious to me but never enters your mind

Can’t you feel the ache, the silent plea?

Broken pieces of who I used to be

Caught in this quest, so restless and free

Yearning for honesty, longing to be

Maybe someday you’ll see through the haze

Realize the truth before it slips away

Until then I’ll wait in the silent screams

For someone who sees what they mean to me

Why are you the only one that can't understand?

I've been reaching out, trying to hold your hand

Can’t accept that anyone could truly be

As honest and kind as the men in your dreams

You’re So distant and so far away

Living in the fear of yesterday

Yeah, keep looking past me.

Good luck finding what we already have.

A next-to perfect connection... in the trash
