Take me where the flowers never die Where the stars are hanging close enough to touch Where every little wound becomes a butterfly And nobody expects too much Let me stay beneath this painted sky I haven't felt this safe in such a long time If this is only dreaming, let me dream tonight Please don't make me leave behind this life There's a house beside the ocean With a garden made of gold There's a little path through heaven Where the nights are never cold And I can hear the children laughing In a language made of light Nobody is asking if I'm okay Nobody can see me cry But somewhere past the mountains I can hear the morning call And the colours start to tremble As the shadows touch the walls I know this place is borrowed I know it cannot last But I don't have the strength tonight To face the world outside Don't wake me up Don't let the morning find me I finally found a place Where nothing wants to break me Don't wake me up I'm begging you to let me stay I cannot face another day Inside a world that feels this way The sky is turning colourless The ocean starts to fade I see the cracks beneath the clouds And hear the things I tried to escape The room is waiting for me The same old ceiling overhead And every thought I buried Is crawling back inside my head I wish that I could tell someone How tired I've become But every time I reach for words My voice comes out undone If I open up my eyes Will I find another reason to survive? If I close them one more time Can I keep this little world alive? Don't wake me up Don't let the morning find me I finally found a place Where nothing wants to break me Don't wake me up I'm begging you to let me stay I cannot face another day Inside a world that feels this way I DON'T WANT TO GO BACK! I DON'T WANT TO FEEL THAT WAY! I'M SO TIRED OF FIGHTING EVERY THOUGHT THAT COMES MY WAY! I BUILT A WORLD ABOVE THE PAIN! I GAVE IT SUNSHINE, GAVE IT RAIN! BUT EVEN HERE I HEAR IT CALLING! EVEN HERE, I FEEL IT FALLING! Maybe I don't need forever Maybe just a little while Somewhere I can breathe without pretending Somewhere I can close my eyes And if the morning finds me Let it find me slowly I am frightened of tomorrow But I'm still here, I'm still breathing Don't wake me up I know the morning's waiting But I found a little light Inside the life I've been escaping Don't wake me up But if I have to face the day Let me carry something beautiful From this place that I have made Somewhere the flowers never die Somewhere the stars are still alive Somewhere I can feel the light And maybe I can stay this time The dream is fading... But I am still here.
