I wake in a sweat
The whiplash cracks and cuts me deep
I hoped by now I'd forget
But you're still with me when I sleep
I round another bend (trapped inside the maze)
If I stop running, I'll be consumed (trapped inside the maze)
Yet another dead end (trapped inside the maze)
In our past I am entombed (trapped inside the maze)
Filling my lungs with dopamine
It drowns out the pain
When every dream's better than reality
I never wake up the same
The walls begin (Mirrors hang from the ceiling)
To follow me
The floors open (I see myself kneeling)
And swallow me
Somniphobe (Emaciated I'm just bone)
I'm too afraid to close my eyes
The jet-black strobe (Just don't let me sleep alone)
And I miss you more every time I rise
Filling my lungs with dopamine
It drowns out the pain
When every dream's better than reality
I never wake up the same
Submerged my brain in melatonin
Forgetting about the end
When every nightmare is better than the life we live
I'd rather not wake again
Tonight, your arms are around me
Tomorrow I'll never feel their touch again
Tonight, I fall asleep
For the last time
Tonight, you're the only one for me
Tomorrow you're vaguely a friend
Tonight, I dream good dreams
For the last time
Filling my lungs with dopamine
It drowns out the pain
When every dream's better than reality
I never wake up the same
Submerged my brain in melatonin
Forgetting about the end
When every nightmare is better than the life we live
I'd rather not wake again
