Dead but Dreaming
Through the silence I came bearing
Bloody knuckles and knives in my back
You took my hand and pulled me out
You tore your world into mine
I can see right through the lines so
Just take a step back
Take a step back and breathe
You tore your life into mine
And now I can't wake up
I can see right through the lies
You blurred the lines, so take a step back
Now let's pretend, just for tonight
I'm not the only one, I'm not the only one
We'll keep dreaming for a better day
So don't wake me up
Cause I'm loving the way that I feel
No don't wake me up
Because the lie is all that's real
But I won't go down
No, not that easily
No, I won't go down without you with me
So wake me up, but keep my eyes closed
I want to feel you but I don't want to know
What the world knows, what the world sees
That baby I was the one
Who made the skies fall
And stopped your heartbeat
No baby, I don't want to know
So keep my eyes closed
Keep my eyes closed
Calling for my hand from another world
Made of different light, a fictitious guide
Way beyond deep with in my mind
You tore your world into mine
Awake in a haze
Surrounded by never ending days
I feel like I'm lost
Feel like I'm cheated, defeated
And beaten from inside out up to my feet
I can't believe I've pretended for this long
That I could live on with an empty soul
Wasting my time, a useless existence
But with some persistence
I'll make my way home
You have all fallen victim
To a hopeless illusion
Wake the fuck up
Lost in a scene of sleep
Why can't you hear me?
Screaming your name, screaming your name
You Bitch
(Wake the fuck up)
So wake me up, but keep my eyes closed
I want to feel you but I don't want to know
What the world knows, what the world sees
That baby I was the one
Who made the skies fall
And stopped your heartbeat
No baby, I don't want to know
So keep my eyes closed
Keep my eyes closed
Bloody knuckles and knives in my back
You took my hand and pulled me out
You tore your world into mine
I can see right through the lines so
Just take a step back
Take a step back and breathe
You tore your life into mine
And now I can't wake up
I can see right through the lies
You blurred the lines, so take a step back
Now let's pretend, just for tonight
I'm not the only one, I'm not the only one
We'll keep dreaming for a better day
So don't wake me up
Cause I'm loving the way that I feel
No don't wake me up
Because the lie is all that's real
But I won't go down
No, not that easily
No, I won't go down without you with me
So wake me up, but keep my eyes closed
I want to feel you but I don't want to know
What the world knows, what the world sees
That baby I was the one
Who made the skies fall
And stopped your heartbeat
No baby, I don't want to know
So keep my eyes closed
Keep my eyes closed
Calling for my hand from another world
Made of different light, a fictitious guide
Way beyond deep with in my mind
You tore your world into mine
Awake in a haze
Surrounded by never ending days
I feel like I'm lost
Feel like I'm cheated, defeated
And beaten from inside out up to my feet

What the world knows, what the world sees
That baby I was the one
Who made the skies fall
And stopped your heartbeat
No baby, I don't want to know
So keep my eyes closed
Keep my eyes closed
