I Need a Holiday from Reality

I need a holiday from reality
because reality is too bitter for me.
It's really time to break free
can't you see?
I need a holiday from reality.

It is getting all too threatening
where will things go?
the supervision of my reckoning
causes my mind to overflow.

Reality is one thing
what I make of it another.
captured by imagining
I need some time without external bother.

Which is not so easy
as this implies my phone.
that keeps me company to please me
when I feel all alone.
