Sleep Away

It croaks and whines as I struggle to emerge,

I want to sleep away and be gone,

But the world so real has emerged here and now,

I want to start and make a change to it all,

But I can't stop living to fulfil a fantasy,

Cause the start and stop is all with me,

If I had a chance,

I'd escape it all,

To live in the simplicity of being a child.
