Evergrey — I'm Sorry

I painted a picture of you,

Your soul was red and your mind was blue.

And destiny laid a light on my creation.

This dream I had made a slave of my passion,

Reality was always too far away.

And we were happy until it came too close one day.

Suddenly I faced the truth of my dream,

My love had only been a picture, a scene.

I suppose I needed to believe, didn't want to see

You had never been close to me.

And now I'm sorry, this illusion

Has caused you a lot of pain.

And I have no solution,

I'll try to never be back again.

I'm sorry...

I painted a picture of you.

My dream was a lie and the lie became truth.

Reality held his breath too long.

It's disgusting what dreams can do...
