Waking Up In a Dream
Caged out inside herself
The dark light will never shine
Why do you care to think negative
If you'd care to think at all?
Can you believe I wanted to be you?
The dream faded long ago
Once I realized it was me whom was right; prudence redeemed
Your thoughts were wrong
Why would you ever try someone that is less than you
Someone that could never contend
Directly to the end?
My ashes turn dark
Suffering from the sins of others
No melody can save me
I'm crossing the borderline
Waking up in a dream
Is it justified To harm others
Only to break your insecurities
To fill your prejudice
I wish I could know
Why you do this
The words freeze when the come to me
To burn another was they set into you
Relapsed again I was left bleeding
Cause I'm not good enough if I can be me
You were the dream; I was the nightmare
Serendipity came for me
And I woke up in a dream
My ashes turn dark
Suffering from the sins of others
No melody can save me
I'm crossing the borderline
Waking up in a dream
My ashes turn dark
Suffering from the sins of others
No melody can save me
I'm crossing the borderline
Waking up in a dream
Say oh, I must say, to you,
Mon plus Cher ami
Yes to you
I'm sorry I had an opinion
I'm sorry I felt for one who can't feel
I'm sorry I wasn't you
I'm sorry I can only be me
I'm sorry your dread words will never again be heard by me
My ashes turn dark
Suffering from the sins of others
No melody can save me
I'm crossing the borderline
Waking up in a dream
My ashes turn dark
Suffering from the sins of others
No melody can save me
I'm crossing the borderline
Waking up in a dream
