I used to find solace in my sleep
Now, even in my dreams, I go to someplace far and deep
She shows me my worst fears
I feel blood on my hands, but my eyes don't have any tears

She shows me memories of my haunted past
I hope this inferno doesn't last
I try to flee and I run away
I feel this darkness is worse than the reality of a bright day

They often say dreams come true
They forgot to mention that the nightmares were dreams too
My phantoms haunt me during my trance
All I want is another chance

She visits me in my dreams to show how things have changed
The fear of reality makes me feel deranged
My bruises and trauma, I can't seem to ignore
For, I can't identify my dreams and reality anymore

I feel as if I'm going insane
I feel that there's something wrong with my brain
My nightmares drove me crazy and hit me hard
I feel numb towards the misery I've caused

Everything that's happening, is it all a dream?
Illusions are not always so true as they seem
She still visits me every night when I'm in my bed
The worst demons are always in my own head

They often say dreams come true
They forgot to mention that the nightmares were dreams too
My phantoms haunt me during my trance
All I want is another chance

She visits me in my dreams to show how things have changed
The fear of reality makes me feel deranged
My bruises and trauma, I can't seem to ignore
For, I can't identify my dreams and reality anymore
