Torn between two lives,
the one I have
and the one I want.
The one that I live
and the one I dream about.

Torn between two lives,
the one I want
to escape from
to the one I want
to escape to.

Torn between two lives,
reality and fantasy.
One holds no promise,
while the other holds
all I ever wanted to be.
