Midnight I've fallen fast asleep

Daylight I can't remember anything

It all happened so fast. Over the time span of two weeks, Jackson had somehow managed to convince Lisa he was truly sorry about what he did. The he loved her. And most of all, that he wanted her.

Then, somewhere between his persistent kisses and the sea breeze, she wound up sleeping with him. It had all felt so right, his touches, his words. The feelings.

So many questions that get in the way

About the place I keep sleeping awake

Lisa sighed and cuddled back into Jackson's chest just before he wrapped his arm around her bare waist and rolled her onto her back, winding up with him on top of her.

So wake me and tell me what you see

Let me walk with you in the streets

The streets with no name cause I feel far away

And as I wake I only fail to remember

"Wow, Leese that was one great fuck." Jackson snickered, the smile on Lisa's face quickly faded. "I never thought that after someone was rapped they could still be so good in the bedroom." He laughed as he stood from the bed and reached for his clothes.

"What are you doing?" she asked quietly.

"I'm leaving, I've got places to go people to see." He pulled on his boxer shorts.

"You're just leaving?" Lisa sat up, pulling the sheet with her to cover her bare chest.

Why do I feel like I'm slipping away

Why do I feel so far away

Wake me up inside my dreams

Just in time for me to believe

Jackson shrugged and zipped up his pants; he turned his back to her and smirked. "I got what I wanted, no need to stick around with a bitch who stabbed a pen into my throat."

"But… you said you loved me…," She said. Jackson responded with a loud chuckle that caused Lisa to shiver.

Another morning chasing lies

After another evening chasing skies

So make tonight my reality

So tomorrow I remember everything

"And you believed that load of crap?!" He turned back to her, "You're damaged goods, Leese. Not worth more then a one night fuck." Jackson grinned mercilessly as Lisa completely crumpled; she curled into a ball and sobbed. Jackson stepped forward and placed a hand on the back of her head, "Don't worry, at least you figured it out now instead of when you tried to marry someone and they turned you down."

Why do I feel

Like staying awake when I fall asleep

Lisa continued to sob when she heard him leave the room.

She continued to sob when she heard the front door open and close.

She continued to sob when she heard the sound of a car start and drive away.

And when the sun came up in the early hours in the morning, she was still sobbing.

I don't wanna feel

The pain never ends cause it never began
