I can't help but shake in my sleep,
These horrible images I keep seeing hurt me deep,
I can't help but cry at what I see I'm losing,
I try to stop it by screaming,
But it doesn't hear me make a sound,
However, outside of the dreamworld, you can hear me cry as loud as a night hound,
I'm surrounded by fears,
I can't hold by my tears,
I need to wake up;

I need to wake up;

Once I wake, I'll cry out: "No!"
I'll breathe heavy and wait until my heartbeat is slow,
I'll wait for you to wrap your arms around me,
Ask me: "What's wrong?" And tell me: "It's okay, it's just me",
Oh, if only I had someone like you here anyway;
