Can't take what I don't have to give

pacifier

Don't ask of me what I can't give
I'm not willing to lose my dreams for you
Use me as you wish
To release your hate or love, it's truth

But realise it's all smoke and mirrors
And when the smoke has cleared
You'll find what you are looking for
And it won't be what you thought

Use these fantasies as a measuring stick
And don't accept anything
That doesn't measure up
Although it's all inside your head
This world of all pretend
Will lead you to love

There'll be no need to thank the journey
Once you've reached your destination
No need for hate or longing
Or for holding on to memories
No more fantasies.

So use me as you wish
But know what you want
I can't give.
