This is where it starts
Haunting me
Taunting me
Flaunting the moments yet to come
Calling me
Warning me
Evolving me
Into something else
I don't want to be
It's plain to see we are but
Creatures in candle light
Waiting for
Darkness to swallow us all
I'm afraid to say
Round, and around, and around again
These dreams are way too real for me
Will you run, or will you stay?
For now I'll talk my own self down
You're okay
And I'm okay
These dreams are way too real for me
Will you hide or will you seek?
For now I'll tell myself just stay
Stay awake
Stay awake
One more time she says
For old time sake
Deceitful snake
Who replies
You will not surely die
But it's plain to see
It's killing me
You're killing me
Dressed in mourning she says
Shake it off me baby
Dance with the devil, "keep me in check" she says
Dance with the devil, "keep me in check" she says
I'm afraid to say
Round, and around, and around again
These dreams are way too real for me
Will you run or will you stay?
For now I'll talk my own self down
You're okay
And I'm okay
These dreams are way too real for me
Will you hide or will you seek?
For now I'll tell myself just stay
Stay awake
Stay awake
Stay awake
Stay awake
Awake
Vacant stare, lost pride
Looking oh so mortified
Need not to despair
Life will lift you up somewhere
Hold on, hold on, hold on now
What was once lost is now found
I'm afraid to say
Round, and around, and around again
These dreams are way too real for me
Will you run or will you stay?
For now I'll talk my own self down
You're okay
And I'm okay
These dreams are way too real for me
Will you hide or will you seek?
For now I'll tell myself just stay
Stay awake
Stay awake
This is where it starts
