The Dream's That Won'T Keep
As i wake up covered in sweat
My mind only thinks of him
And the pain that it wasn't real
That it was all a dream
As I wait for the pain
To become stronger than it is
To have that strangled hold on me
As it always does
When I dream of him
And it's only a dream
A dream I don't want to wake up from
Oh how i wish it was real
To the bottom of my core
To hear his voice, to touch him, to smell him
Just one more time
The thought , the fear
Of never seeing him again
Drops me to my knees in pain
A pain I can't describe
My heart shatters at the thought
Just one more time
would be enough
No it wouldn't
i want it all
But I don't know if it'll ever happen
I'm about to break
This pain I can't shake
Everytime i wake
I don't know how much more my heart can take
How many more times it can break
How much more I can take
I just want to be in his arms again
To feel safe again
