Parasocial Syndrome
Coffee's warm, the morning light, he makes me laugh, it feels so right, just an ordinary day, this is how it's meant to stay. Stop! What was that? One second there, now gone, just like that, this isn't my life, so where's mine? This isn't my life! I fell in love, it's really true, learning more of him in all we do, when he walks in, my feet leave ground, I'm floating up without a sound. Stop! What was that? One second there, now gone, just like that, this isn't my life, so where's mine? This isn't my life! Sun and sea, the waves roll by, gulls are calling in the sky, warmth is spreading, slow and deep, nothing else is mine to keep. Stop! What was that? One second there, now gone, just like that, this isn't my life, so where's mine? This isn't my life! Warm weight resting on my chest, tiny breath so soft, so near, finally my baby's laid to rest, nothing else the world holds dear. Stop! What was that? One second there, now gone, just like that, this isn't my life, so where's mine? This isn't my life! I throw the ball, Oscar runs so fast, like this moment's built to last, comes back nudging, wet-nosed, glad, tail's wagging like the best he's had. Stop! What was that? One second there, now gone, just like that, this isn't my life, so where's mine? This isn't my life! The flash fades fast, I can't hold on, back in a life that's not my own, someone else's morning light, and I'm gone again, out of sight.
