"Waking Nightmare" lyrics

Dear God, she's reaching out
A shattered, broken soul overwhelmed with doubt
The room fell silent when she hit the ground
Searching for a sign of life beyond the ultrasound
She falls to her knees, begging to the Lord, please
She feels the weight of the loss for a life that will never be
A memory, a broken dream
With every breath that she takes, she's praying out to conceive
The silence echoes in her mind
Begging to turn back the sands of time
Her heart aches with each and every beat
Longing for the chance to hold the child she'll never meet

I'm never gonna know what it's like to love you
I'll never get to feel your heartbeat
There's nothing in the world I wouldn't try to undo
You're being ripped away from me
Waking up without you is just not enough
'Cause living on feels more and more like a waking nightmare

There's no sorry that'll soothe the burn
Careless apologies, insensitive words
Consumed with guilt every passing day
These wounds are too deep, they'll never go away
"I'll never forgive"
"I'll never forgive myself," she said
"I failed as a mother," crying myself to sleep each night

I'm never gonna know what it's like to love you
I'll never get to feel your heartbeat
There's nothing in the world I wouldn't try to undo
You're being ripped away from me
Waking up without you is just not enough
'Cause living on feels more and more like a waking nightmare

She screams out, losing his life was like losing two
A part of me died, I'll never get over you
Never, never, never

Time may heal, but this emptiness I will always feel
A mother's love will never fade
Forever the trauma remains, but I will learn
To welcome the pain

Waking up without you is just not enough
'Cause living on feels more and more like a waking nightmare

I'm never gonna know what it's like to love you
I'll never get to feel your heartbeat
There's nothing in the world I wouldn't try to undo
You're being ripped away from me

Lord, help me see the light
The constant strain that cuts like a knife
I'm reaching out for a meaning
I'll see you again
I'll see you again
I'll see you again
