long nights...wide awake in the empty darkness. 

dreading... the alarm that waits at the dawn of day. 

i'm anxious... for all the things that i want from life. 

i'm tired...now i push my thoughts away. 

long day...tired and sore, abused my body, 

troubled...i find no peace in what i'm paid. 

distracted...the tv takes me from my worries. 

absent...of any progress i have made. 

i am nothing more than a dreamer, wasting my life. 

consumed with my passion, 

caught in a world of debts and decisions. 

do i lose it forever or do i hold on i am no different, 

just one of the masses. 

caught up in the task of survival. 

i am waiting on days without any worries. 

do i lose it forever or do i hold on?...to my dreams.
