Neverending Nightmare (lyrics)

by LostHopesCrimsonTears   Mar 20, 2006


{verse 1}
I lay down my head and close my eyes
thinkin' im ok.
knowing soon its over
Ive lived through another day.
but I breath my sigh of relief too soon
as I drift further into sleep
for now is when my worst nightmares
in my head begin to creep

{chorus}
'cause you know that I still dream about you
every goddamn night

I keep tryin' to forget you
but I just cant win the fight

and though it might be easier
if the dreams were soft and sweet

all they're ever filled with is
more heartbreak and deceit

{verse 2}
how is it so that every night
you can break my heart again
why cant you just give me some time
some time to heal, to mend
instead each morning when I wake
it starts all over again
and I spend all day tryin to forget you
just wishing this would end

{chorus}
'cause you know that I still dream about you
every goddamn night

I keep tryin' to forget you
but I just cant win the fight

and though it might be easier
if the dreams were soft and sweet

all they're ever filled with is
more heartbreak and deceit

{bridge}
I'll never forget
the look in your eyes.
the look of hate
of pure despise.

you stare me down
you break my heart
you break me down
and tear me apart

{chorus}
'cause you know that I still dream about you
every goddamn night

I keep tryin' to forget you
but I just cant win the fight

and though it might be easier
if the dreams were soft and sweet

all they're ever filled with is
more heartbreak and deceit

{verse 3}
your power never fading
you still hold me in your grasp
draining me slowly
I fade away
my breath I cannot catch
my never ending nightmare
pulls me closer to the edge
but your the one who'll push me off the ledge

{chorus}
'cause you know that I still dream about you
every goddamn night

I keep tryin' to forget you
but I just cant win the fight

and though it might be easier
if the dreams were soft and sweet

all they're ever filled with is
more heartbreak and deceit

    I'm actually lost for words. No criticisms at all, flawless (except you might want to correct the spelling in the first chorus - just though you might like to know) Really though, absolutely amazing, I'm stunned, genuinely stunned if I could give it 6 I would, as it stands 5 will have to do! x
