Sometimes

Sometimes I dream
Of a land far off
Where I don't have to
Deal with my life.
I know it sounds cowardly,
I know I sound weak.
But it's hard to be strong,
When my situation is bleak.

Sometimes I sing
Of a land far away
Where all they do is
Hum and dance.
I know it sounds girly,
I know I sound strange.
But it's hard to be a tomboy,
When there's nothing to gain.

Sometimes I see
A land close by
It is the real world
And it's come for me.
I know it sounds bad,
I know I sound sad.
But it's hard to be positive,
When there's no happiness to be had.
