If I could go through life
Far less awake
I'd set fire to what's mine
I'd feel comfort in the blaze
If I could escape these nightmares
I'd sleep my days away
Create a new nightlife
Freed from my tired haze
I didn't know my fears can't be outgrown
I am so alone
They don't tell you nightmares don't stop after dark
And they don't tell you it's this hard
They don't tell you nightmares don't stop after dark
They never tell
If I could get over it, I would
Stay unconscious if I could
Hate forcing my eyes to stay open
But I fear what's housed outside them
If I could escape these nightmares
Embrace the sweet release of sleep
Breaking my own REM cycle
Drugging myself psycho
I didn't know my fears can't be outgrown
I am so alone
