Hallways

You who inspire illusion bring nothing but harm You only promise confusion despite all your charms You'd rather forsake me Than break me or take me And turn me around in your arms And I who have schemes That I wish to keep dreams Keep my attention on the alarms We who are bound by duty forget why we came And at the first glimpse of beauty are filled up with shame It seems like I've always Been walking down hallways Pretending like they're not the same They go on and on 'Til I rise with the dawn Trying to remember your name Now I with nothing to touch must turn you away Before I ask for too much, I ask you to stay It's only some thing That makes me want to sing But makes me forget how to play When these songs are done I'll still need someone To love at the end of the day
