nightmares
By eleanor maslen •
the things i see when i close my eyes i know that they arent real,
but i just cant help the fear i cant tell my heart what to feel
i know the things i see at night are inside my head
yet as the days grow darker, i cant escape the dread
i know thats coming i see it now, i wish this would just end
ive started to look at nightmares, as my dark lonley friend
those empty nights when i sleep alone my friend is at my side
and i can do nothing now but go along on the ride
I'll wake myself in tears at the things ive seen
to hell and back and there again every night ive been
when awake i am not scared there is nothing that i fear
for days only last hours, and my nightmares are always near
