lyrics

You're not the first I've brought here
There were many in the past
But I'm hoping, God willing
That you might be the last
I'll admit that all of my selfishness was selfish
And I hate to say it, but I liked you more when you were helpless
I only sin the most cowardly sins
I can't even tell whose dream I'm in
I hardly ever dream when I'm asleep
Because my daydreams are already too deep
Forgive me honey but when you're this naive
Sometimes you choke cause you forget to breathe
How long can I let you live in my head
You torture me with words you've never said
I loved you for who you never were
Now I hate you for the truth I ignored
I loved you for the things you never did
I made you up cause I was lonely and bored
In my mind I've got a cloning machine
I've got a copy of you in my dream
It replicates you as you seem
It builds only the you I've seen
But what I've seen is not the truth
And I don't think I can blame it on my youth
I've got no more excuses
This machine's run out of uses

How long can I let you live in my head
You torture me with words you've never said
I've got to focus on what's real instead
It's done, it's time for this dream to be dead
