Vanessa Carlton - Nightmare
Another day draws to a closing
And yet it's me left here wondering
What could it mean those words he said
That in the least encompasses my head
˜Sweet Dreams' he remarked
a gentle kiss imprinting my heart
Apparent to me, it obviously seems
He doesn't know what comes with dreams
It brings the cold sweat out
Fumbling and chilling, what their all about
When I try to run, they grab me
Within my deceit, their reality
A piercing shriek; a crying sky
No time to gasp let alone ask why
The shadows come, surrounding
My fear alone is mounding; in this, my nightmare
Creatures of amazing concoction
My soul they sell at this inhuman auction
The hidden, darken corners now are visible
Long forgotten fears now are plausible; in this my nightmare
Swallowed up in the sound of my screaming
Oh how I long for the deep sleep dreaming
I cannot cease for the fear of silent nights
I the goddess of imaginary light
If you need to leave the world you live in
Lay your head down and stay a while
Though you may not remember dreaming
Something waits for you to breathe again; in this my nightmare
And yet it's me left here wondering
What could it mean those words he said
That in the least encompasses my head
˜Sweet Dreams' he remarked
a gentle kiss imprinting my heart
Apparent to me, it obviously seems
He doesn't know what comes with dreams
It brings the cold sweat out
Fumbling and chilling, what their all about
When I try to run, they grab me
Within my deceit, their reality
A piercing shriek; a crying sky
No time to gasp let alone ask why
The shadows come, surrounding
My fear alone is mounding; in this, my nightmare
Creatures of amazing concoction
My soul they sell at this inhuman auction
The hidden, darken corners now are visible
Long forgotten fears now are plausible; in this my nightmare
Swallowed up in the sound of my screaming
Oh how I long for the deep sleep dreaming
I cannot cease for the fear of silent nights
I the goddess of imaginary light
If you need to leave the world you live in
Lay your head down and stay a while
Though you may not remember dreaming
Something waits for you to breathe again; in this my nightmare
