Reality
You're my best friend
But no one can ever know
It's not that I'm embarrassed of you
No of course not
It's that everyone would be disappointed if they knew
I remember
I met you at a party in high school
I was standing awkwardly in the corner
Then you arrived
You were very social
Making your way slowly to everyone
Painting a smile on their faces
Before moving onto your next victim
You've helped me through so much
When I was feeling down
You were always there to cheer me up
When I was alone
You kept me company night after night
Reminding me that you'll always be there
I've met quite a few friends through you
It seems we all share a common interest
We all like to wake the next morning
Not knowing the difference
Between what actually happened
And what was just a dream
Muddy memories meet reality
I never know what's real when I'm around you
You just have that affect on me
Making me see anything I want
Everything I have
I'll never leave you
Even through you put me in the hospital
When I got too excited with you
And don't worry
I forgive you for taking away my job and my family
I didn't need them anyway
As long as I have you clutched in my hand at the end of the night
I feel like I can live happily ever after
