Ten years ago
Absorbed inside a world of my own
Too bored to smile
Unaware of privilege and pride
I never thought there'd come a day too late
So sleep deprived
Under your soft caress she survives
Her inner child knows better than to show when she cries
Every betrayal reminds her it's too late
Dreams never end
But maybe we were simpler as friends
Now and then
A drink might give us a chance to pretend
Try as we might, but is it much too late?
