I lie with my eyes closed tight

My dreams are nightmares tonight

Beaching into my reality

Squeezing my chest so I can't breathe



Not knowing you can't be real

Feeling what I always feel

Pain comes into me dramatically

Until I wake that's when I see



Rising from the pain

Disappearing from my self again

Wake me when I take

My last breath away



Pain, waking me from my dreams

Pain, nothing is as it seems

Pain, causing me fear at night

An inner war I cannot fight



Hand wrapping around my throat

You're quickly taking control

I'm so helpless you've taken me

Into a world where I can't breathe



Rising from the pain

Disappearing from my self again

Wake me when I take

My last breath away



Pain, waking me from my dreams

Pain, nothing is as it seems

Pain, causing me fear at night

An inner war I cannot fight



As I catch my breath, I awaken to a day unknown

As I catch my breath, I step out from the shadows

As I catch my breath, I am leaving my dreams filled with ghosts

As I catch my breath, my body becomes their host



Rising from the pain

Disappearing from my self again

Wake me when I take

My last breath away



Pain, waking me from my dreams

Pain, nothing is as it seems

Pain, causing me fear at night

An inner war I cannot fight
