dream is over

the dream is over
i was back in singapore for 9 days, it is over
the days went by so quickly, it is over
i remember landing in singapore and smiling as i walked in the airport, it is over
i remember my dad waiting for me at the arrivals, it is over
the ride home was a long one, it is over
i so enjoyed seeing my brothers and parents and grandma again, it is over
i saw the girl my heart still longs for, it is over
i hung out with some friends and did some stuff, it is over
i slept in the bed i'd been sleeping in for more than 1/2 my life, it is over
the memories that flooded my mind when i was at home, it is over
i loved it when i unpacked my luggage at home, it is over
the awesome high-speed internet i have, it is over
i loved walking the streets of the country i call home, it is over

the dream is over
i hugged my mom and shook my dad's hand, im awake
tears filled my eyes as i waved, putting up a brave front, im awake
as i walked to the gate, my eyes filled with tears, im awake
they rolled down my cheeks as i tried to hold them back, im awake
the ride in the plane was smooth, im awake
i got a 2:1 USD to SGD exchange rate on the plane, im awake
i carried my luggage across a busy highway, im awake
the journey took 3 hours, im awake
im in my room, in thailand, on the internet, im awake

the dream is over
was i really there
did i really see who i thought i saw
did i really do what i did

the dream is over

i am awake

i didn't want to wake up

sleep...
