Jack Wakley - Nightmares Lyrics

When I was a child I never thought about it twice
And all of the photos of me were in black and white
Living in the real world was a concept left to try
But I never thought that life was fragile and unkind
My heart isn't empty
But I can't forget my
Can't forget my nightmares

Surrounded by darkness and the monsters in the night
I cling to my mother 'cause she was my only light
Don't tell me you have all the answers
Don't tell me how to deal with cancer
After all this time
I feel my heart's been left behind
And I just wanna hit rewind
But what's the point in going back?

Sometimes I feel like you're fading slowly from my mind
And that is so scary to me, it must be a lie
I found out the truth but I refuse to think it's right
I'm going to choose to keep on searching 'til I find
A sign of you
'Cause I can't forget my
Can't forget my nightmares

Surrounded by darkness and the monsters in the night
I cling to my mother 'cause she was my only light
Don't tell me you have all the answers
Don't tell me how to deal with cancer
'Cause after all this time
I feel my heart's been left behind
And I just wanna hit rewind
But what's the point in going back?

Feel my heart's been left behind
I just wanna hit rewind
But what's the point in going back
What's the point in going back?
Going back
What's the point in going back?
