Dreamt into Misery
The nightmares, so real.
Close your eyes and they come.
Can't stop them or change them.
Can't wake up or run.
Everynight without fail,
Sweat, tears and pain.
Dare to sleep? Dare to dream?
It will all be the same.
To the point that you fight,
Till you're forced to give in.
Can't stay awake any longer,
The world then grows dim.
As the voice echos on,
Always there in your head.
Even life seems to hurt,
For living in dread.
Are you crazy? Have you lost it?
Or is it in control?
Better wake up and fight it!
Before misery fills your soul.
