Wake Me When It's Over

Close your eyes to the world outside
It's a shit storm so they say
It's just you and I on an endless holiday
We'll pass the time, pour a drink, get high
In a futile state of play
Try to numb the truth
There may be nothing left to save

Well, if that's the way it is
Then pass me one last hit
'Cause the voices in my head make me insane

You can wake me when it's over
When the nightmare finally ends
You can wake me when it's over
So that I can dream again

Rations now as the rain comes down
On this pallid paradise
There's no relief when there is no end in sight
Wanna slip away from the dead and grey
Can you ease my worried mind?
If you're in the mood, well, you know I've got the time
Yeah, I do

If you please, I must insist
Please concede with just one kiss
Got the doldrums once again, I cannot lie

You can wake me when it's over
When the nightmare finally ends
You can wake me when it's over
So that I can dream again

If we could get back to the order
The way it was once again
Please don't tell me that it's over
I'm scared as hell, I can't pretend

What comes next?
Well, I must confess, I haven't got clue
For all I know, the end is coming soon
Wanna lay you down in that pretty gown
We got nothing left to lose
As it all burns down at least I'll die with you

So baby, take me now, it's over
I'm afraid we've reached the end
But it might save me when it's over
To know I died with my best friend, oh
