I put my head in the charger In a minute Imma run outta power I'm an emotional rider But I'm never all alone in Nirvana With adidas on my feet And The Beatles on the speakers I'm not going back to sleep I never jump outta showers Cause that is my reservoir full of flowers My emotional barber Staying here till I put out the fire so I got bruises on my knees And Aretha on the speakers I'm not going back to sleep Cause I'm afraid of the Dark Don't wanna fall asleep I won't close my eyes What if don't wake up I need you to stay right by my side I need more than dreams to bring me back again Pull me out if I get stuck in REM Not really sure how it started No one around but it still feels crowded Whenever sleep has departed The green grass on the inside's watered On a fantasy retreat My headphones haven't decided How I'm going back to sleep Cause I'm afraid of the Dark Don't wanna fall asleep I won't close my eyes What if don't wake up I need you to stay here by my side I need more than dreams to bring me back again So pull me out if I get stuck in REM Tell me All about that dream You had Before you forget about All the faces you've seen REM'ing Like a movie Tell me I'm all ears for you For you I'm all ears for you For you I'm all ears for you For you Cause I'm afraid of the Dark Don't wanna fall asleep I won't close my eyes What if don't wake up I need you to stay here by my side I need more than dreams to bring me back again So pull me out if I get stuck in REM
