Jordan Jackson - Nightmare Lyrics

I made a promise to myself
That I would never be mundane
And that includes
Sitting in a chair
Trying for someone else's dream
It's so cliché
Mmm mm

And I don't wanna go to bed again
And have another nightmare
Where my past comes back to haunt me
And I live it all again
I'd rather sleep
Soundly
Knowing what's ahead

It feels like some people are born with tragedy in their bones
And some people aren't born like that

I read forums on the internet
Bout things that I'm into
And everybody writing sounds like me
Except way more annoying
It's true
But I'm not like that
Am I?

And I don't wanna wake up sober
And have another day go where
The future comes to haunt me
And I live it all again
I'd rather die
In my sleep
Knowing who I am

It feels like some people are born with tragedy in their bones
And some people aren't born like that

Well I'm awake
For now
My cycles run out
Pretty fast now
And I can't say
How long
I'll be around
So we should write this whole thing down

And I don't wanna go to bed again
And have another nightmare
Where my past comes back to haunt me
And I live it all again
I'd rather sleep
Soundly
Knowing what's ahead

It feels like some people are born with tragedy in their bones
And some people aren't born like that
