[Verse 1] Woke up sweaty within inches of d**h There's a hole in the ceiling that's right above my bed And I know, no escape this time it's the end Slower come the seconds now that the sun has set And the floor always beckons me to jump out of bed But I know I can't sleep with my head on the concrete [Pre-Chorus] But I can't seem to find what they mean Must be reflecting something deep in my mind That my eyes can't see because my hopes are reveries And it's so hard to sleep once you've awakened to your dreams During the day you may breathe, but at night your chest is pressed upon by sheets [Chorus] Every daydream is a nightmare, every yawn is a scream You keep reality locked in there until you wake up in your dream [Verse 2] Woke up ready with an itching for breath I am torn from the levee and thrown into the dread I am drowning now my heart is made of led Hope my mind is kind enough to let me forget From the thoughts that had beat my head into a mess As I leave now from the cage that is my mattress [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] [Bridge] After a while you'll open up and see After all, nightmares are just dreams that haven't come true until they do [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] [Bridge] After a while you'll open up and see After all, nightmares are just dreams that haven't come true unless they do [Outro] Woke up sweaty within inches of d**h I've got a hole in the ceiling that's right above my head Woke up ready with an itching for breath
