like someone you don't need
In your life anymore? You're free
To do as you please, to succeed

Why are you ignoring my tries?
My attempts to find what's wrong?
I don't believe your lies
You're just singing that same old song

I hurt you, made you hide
What you kept in your heart
Why is no one on my side?
Why doesn't this thing chart?

I open my eyes, It's a bad dream
I felt so empty, you were not there
I was swimming upstream
My heart filled with despair

If I need anything at all
It's in your lap to rest my head
With just the nightfall,
Our eyes the starlight fed

Bad dreams that I knew
Were fake, unreal
But with our love I flew,
To dreams that I could feel

A Bad Dream

Why are you treating me
like someone you don't need
In your life anymore? You're free
To do as you please, to succeed

Why are you ignoring my tries?
My attempts to find what's wrong?
I don't believe your lies
You're just singing that same old song

I hurt you, made you hide
What you kept in your heart
Why is no one on my side?
Why doesn't this thing chart?

I open my eyes, It's a bad dream
I felt so empty, you were not there
I was swimming upstream
My heart filled with despair

If I need anything at all
It's in your lap to rest my head
With just the nightfall,
Our eyes the starlight fed

Bad dreams that I knew
Were fake, unreal
But with our love I flew,
To dreams that I could feel

I am not usually a big fan of ABAB rhyme scheme, but you might change my mind, who knows. Keep up the excellent work :-P
