Glistening sweat that seeps from brow
Toss n turn with deepening frown
Deep inside the nerves are screaming loud
Somewhere in the mind it sees
Tortured paths of misery
It's not real but wants to believe
All he sees and feels so real
A little touch of the surreal
Deep in rem he lies so unstill
Moments passing he's falling deep
Deeper still he's falling steep
Steeply down this path of restless sleep
In his mind he is running
But really he is laying down
In the dark the lights are blinding
In the silence plays a horrid sound
No way to stop it
No way to stop it till he wakes
No way to stop it
He still thinks his life's at stake
His mind's eye is full of fear
And from the eyes weeps a tear
Wishing he could wake from this nightmare
And the dawn it rise with hope
Anymore he will not cope
And with the sun it throws him a rope
In his mind he is running
But really he is laying down
In the dark the lights are blinding
In the silence plays a horrid sound
No way to stop it, No way to stop it till he wakes
No way to stop it, He still thinks his life's at stake
