My head is full of nightmares and flare guns
I try to wake myself but I can't run
I'm wide awake
The fear is overwhelming
I can't take it
I will have to find a way to keep pretending this ain't real
And make my mind believe that I can be in my fantasy
I shut my eyes and see I should be living in my dreams
My head is full of nightmares and flare guns
I try to wake myself but I can't run
Away from what's been hunting me in my dreams
For so long and now I hold my breath
And count to ten
My thoughts are closing in
And I have to pick my fights
I don't think that I can win
If I could only get through the night
It may seem hard at first
And it may seem impossible
I can't give up yet
I need to forget my troubles
My head is full of nightmares and flare guns
I try to wake myself but I can't run
Away from what's been hunting me in my dreams
For so long and now I hold my breath
When I finally find the gun
My vision becomes clearer
I point it up to the sky
And I pull the trigger
For it was just a bad dream
And bad things happen to good people
I don't believe any of that
I'm not feeling equal
To the ones who can decide
The ones who dare to try
The ones who actually fall asleep at night
I've been having
Nightmares and flare guns
I try to wake myself but I can't run
Away from what's been hunting me in my dreams
For so long and now I hold my breath
My head is full of nightmares and flare guns
I try to wake myself but I can't run
Away from what's been hunting me in my dreams
For so long and now I hold my breath
And count to ten
