Welcome to my nightmare of masquerades in shades of grey

I'm paralyzed by all the fear inside my head

Is this how it's supposed to end?

With white light rushing in



Just strap this ball and chain around my neck and choke me

And I'll try to scream for help but the words just fade and whisper

And you can hear my every thought and how it haunts me

But I'll fight with every ounce of strength that I have left



If I dream tonight, will I die too?

And if I fall asleep, will I fade away?



It's just a dream, when everything you second guess

It's not my time to die, I will not leave tonight

Just like the stories that they told

And those demons want me now



If I dream tonight, will I die too?

And if I fall asleep, will I fade away?



Wake up from this nightmare

Wake up from this lucid dream

Wake up from my real life
