lyrics

Dream

I had a dream,
And in my dream I settled for the cards that I was dealt,
The life that I was given,
And I gave to a cause that would never give back to me,
I gave to a cause that would never give back to me.

But when I awoke, nothing had changed.
I was the same as when I was sleeping.
Somebody pinch me, prick me or kill me,
I don’t want to live my life like this.

I tried to find the answer, but the answer never came.
My hears couldn’t hear your words of endearment,
Emotion got in the way.
And when I tried to find the answer, I nearly went insane.
My eyes couldn’t see, the way you were moving my way.

Rewind back to when I gave a shit about something,
Catch my drift, and see where I’m going.
I’m trying my best to keep a level head,
But if I don’t, I promise that we won’t see the end.

I tried to find the answer, but the answer never came.
My hears couldn’t hear your words of endearment,
Emotion got in the way.
And when I tried to find the answer, I nearly went insane.
My eyes couldn’t see, the way you were moving my way.
