As I try to sleep at night
I can feel the ghosts as they watch me try to sleep
They look into my mind
And there's terrible things inside
I know it's a constant fight
But I do what I can
To keep from falling deeper, deeper
Into this regret
It just feels like there's nothing left
So I lay and I think in my bed...
And that's when the clock says...
So stay here, stay with me tonight
You're the only thing that keeps me awake
You keep me from falling asleep to these dreams
These so called dreams called nightmares
Because I have seen some things you can't explain to me
And I've wanted to escape
All I'm asking for is peace
But it never seems to last, and I'm not okay
So now I can't sleep at night
And the streets I walk are so damn cold
So I look for hope in sight
And I'll admit that I'm terrified
I'm tearing apart my mind
But I'm only a man
And this cold air leaves my lungs as I try to breathe
With these haunting thoughts weighing down on me
The life I once knew is changing with the leaves
Like my hopes falling down
It's just so bitter sweet
So stay here, stay with me tonight
You're the only thing that keeps me awake
So stay here, stay with me tonight
You're the only thing that keeps me awake
You keep me from falling asleep to these dreams
These so called dreams called nightmares
Because I have seen some things you can't explain to me
And I've wanted to escape
All I'm asking for is peace
But it never seems to last and I'm not okay
