"Nightmare" lyrics

"Nightmare"

I'm sleeping less and dreaming more
And not like dreams you've seen before
A picture's worth a thousand swords
Bleeding out on to the floor

Pitch black in a labyrinth now
And I just can't find the door
I can't breathe, tryna scream out loud
But my mouth won't form the words

I'm paralyzed, shaking
Through my eyes, hallucinating
In the moonlight, I'll never make it

If I ever wake up
I'd break all the curses
That hide where the hurt is
If I ever wake up
I'm sick of believing
It's never enough
If I ever wake up...

Do you ever feel like you're falling
Into a deep blue sea?
Trapped beneath a wall of ice
(I'll hold my breath until I drown)
Reach my hands up toward the sky
(But I'm slowly sinking down)

I turn to the dark below
I think it's calling out to me
I know there's only one place to go
So I swim into the deep

I'm paralyzed, shaking
Through my eyes, hallucinating
In the moonlight, I'll never make it

If I ever wake up
I'd break all the curses
That hide where the hurt is
If I ever wake up
I'm sick of believing
It's never enough
If I ever wake up...

They say once you shed the first tear
Right away they can smell fear
And once you fall into the crosshair
You'll never wake up from the nightmare
They say once you shed the first tear
Right away they can smell fear
And once you fall into the crosshair
You'll never wake up from the nightmare

They say once you shed the first tear
Right away they can smell fear
And once you fall into the crosshair

If I ever wake up
I'd break all the curses
That hide where the hurt is
If I ever wake up
I'm sick of believing
It's never enough
If I ever wake up...
