Dream Or Nightmare

I'm having apocalyptic visions in my dreams at night
And the entire world is so full of fright
But i'm not even shaking, and the world is being taken
By an unimaginable force, the dream it isn't faking
All souls are for the taking, but my head held up high
Its time for us to die, at last i'll finally fly
No fear for what's near, no tear did appear
My mind seemed so clear, it's here, but can't hear
Just watching panic, the people are frantic
Almost manic, I can barely stand it, I don't understand it
Running and screaming and crying, won't stop the dying
My resolve is resolute, there is no use in trying
The end is near, and just as the picture clears
I awake, sweat shake, what the hell just happened here?

This is from a real dream I had
