The Men In Your Dreams

[Intro]
Whispered fears in the quiet night
Searching for truth but losing the fight

[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Breakdown]
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

[Chorus]
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 

[Outro]
Yeah, keep looking past me.
Good luck finding what we already have.
A next-to perfect connection... in the trash
