Falling Falling Falling Falling, falling, falling, falling, falling Down from a place That I once thought was my home So far away from the ones I love And the bed I thought was my own What happened when God lost his halo And his robes no longer flow But are torn from the demons' claws He thought he locked outside his door But they still crept in And I can't fight em off anymore Since I was eleven All of these things that I had ignored And it seemed if I lived in dreams They wouldn't reach me through the storm But I was wrong Now when I sleep I look up and I see the sword And it's hanging above my head Ready to fall right towards me I lay right here in my bed And just act like it's unimportant Forget that it's even there Wake up right in the morning It's swinging like a pendulum Clock ticking above my torso Now I hardly sleep anymore These nightmares been worsening Reality getting blurry It's been blending like cursive I'm starting to think What if these dreams really were permanent Eternal hurting and purgatory Every night is a burden No No please tell me That's not how this story closes A man consumed by himself And all the things that he had wrote A man lost in a dream Blind to the things it's taken from him His hands covered in blood But still he holds on to the rose Just admiring its beauty Without realizing it's killing him And he'll never take his eyes off As long as the thorns stick into him Tell me is this life Cause surely it'll soon be finishing Cause every night he goes to sleep Knowing it'll be the end of him And I've tried to change My environment But it's been the other way And I'm so ashamed Of myself For not finding a way to save The ones I love From their pain I think about it every day Cause while they fought I was drowning in all of my own mistakes And I miss when dreams Were beautiful beyond belief The wonders of a child How I miss the days when I could see Now vision hazy Tears falling at a steady speed Dreams so mind numbing My time coming The clock will finally cease And I know my demons waiting patiently Staring at me smiling at night As I sleep so painfully I try to shut it out Hope to keep my mind a vacancy But they still in my head My demons never been vagrants see And I've been irritable and restless Saying sorry to my parents Saying sorry to my brethren Man I wish I could have helped him Instead I sat back helpless I had seen it as he fell in I've done nothing for eleven years Till now when it's irrelevant So please lord forgive me now This weight needs some lifting now I know I've been drifting down In these dreams I can't live without Didn't wish it then well I'll wish it now Wasted coins I was sending down Never knew this is how I'd end it out I just wish that I will get out And make it right Cause cold sweats got me waking up in terror Breathing heavy oh so late at night Screaming for the ones I love The love that I don't deserve But still they come crashing in the door To help with all the hurt And my mind corrupted These dreams taking the place of me And I know I've been blaming dreams When really I should be blaming me But it's hard to take responsibility For what causes pain beneath And I hate to see others suffer Cause I choose to say the least Silence is the sharpest knife God oh how the blade went deep This ate at me For days and weeks To say the least I hate these dreams They make me see the make believe reach so deep and take the things I hate to see The blame I place on me so faithfully So please let these dreams end I'm ready to confront my demons I'm ready to crawl out of the deep end Been in the cold so long now I'm freezing Now I'm screaming Let me see the things I'm afraid of All these things I had escaped from Oh God, I just wanna wake up Get me out this nightmare Please just let me wake up Cause if dreams are nightmares Then I don't wanna live em It's all a nightmare So please just let me end it I just wanna see the sun Cause man it's been a minute I just wanna wake up And pay my friends a visit If dreams are nightmares Then I don't wanna live em It's all a nightmare So please just let me end it I just wanna see the sun Cause man it's been a minute I just wanna wake up And pay my friends a visit Get me out this nightmare
