Bad Dreams

[Verse] Woke up sweating in a velvet haze Moonlight's dancing on a stranger's face The clock is ticking but it won't obey Time bends and folds It slips away [Prechorus] Shadows whisper in a language old The air feels heavy The night's too cold [Chorus] Bad dreams Bad dreams They creep and crawl They tear the seams Bad dreams Bad dreams A waking world ain't what it seems [Verse 2] A staircase spirals but it goes nowhere I chase my voice It's lost in the air A mirror shatters Shows a thousand eyes Each one staring at my thin disguise [Prechorus] The walls are laughing Their voices ring The night’s a puppet and I’m the string [Chorus] Bad dreams Bad dreams They creep and crawl They tear the seams Bad dreams Bad dreams A waking world ain't what it seems
