Writing while daydreaming

Do you ever have that feeling
where you wanna believe in
something you're imagining
VS. something you are seeing?

And it's hard to take in the reality of living
but you stop that dreaming,
with the first morning's breathing.

Then.. you suddenly realize,
you're grounded & hypnotized;
You're squinting your heavy eyes
& focusing the big surprise
... but it's not really a big surprise.
Just the everyday lies
on how everyone dies

"NOT A CARE IN THE WORLD"
You comment on the news.
Get up and out in your everyday shoes.
Confirming the report on the late-breaking trues
"NOBODY CARES ANYMORE LIKE THEY USED TOO"

So you decide to shrug it off,
walk home and get lost
in the world you created,
where the bad things are faded
and everyone's jaded.
And the real-time, you hate it.
But you just smile and fake it.

So lay back and start seeing
the reality you're dreaming
and that same old feeling
that you wanna believe in.
