Dream Awake-Mare Lyrics

I keep waking up with dead insects on the floor

Got boils on my back and I forgot to close the door

It's like the sun refuses to go down

I greet each morning with nothing but a frown

I ask myself what would yesterday think

Search for evidence at the bottom of the sink

You're feeding off me all through the night

Put faith into protection of candlelight

My skin is broken and my eyes are black and blue

Sat within sockets that bare images of you

Dream an awake-mare, when I am asleep

I'm climbing up a staircase far too steep

And when I'm at the top I know that I will fall down

And I can only hope that there is no one around

A cottonwool cynicism ravages this world

I guess that's why I've wasted all my time on this one girl

The big hand's moving fast while the little hand stands still

Lost my sense of purpose long before my sense of will

Never satisfied with the hours in the day

There's far too many for something worth taking away

Your poison leaves me in delirium

Injecting me with all the things that I am yet to learn

My downfall plays in time with music in my head

I think you will find I'll be better off dead
