I thought the time had come for me to find myself 
And take what I could take 
You thought you`d found yourself a dream that wouldn`t 
end 
The moment you awake 
I don`t want any strings, you`d say to me 
Again and again, somehow I still believed 
That even while I was reading you between the lines 
I could see me running blind 

I spent too many of my days too far away 
And felt the toll it takes 
And only learned how much you`re capable of pain 
And who`s the first it breaks 
I`ve had too many strings, you`d say to me 
It hurts too much to break them when the feelings leave 
Much as I thought I`d met the problem eye to eye 
I could see me running blind 

I guess where you`re from, dreams have little mystery 
They make them every day 
It seems a whole lot simpler than reality 
And starts to feel the same
