Lyrics ©2026 Ed Rendum (@edrendum) All Rights Reserved ===================== In the middle of the night I woke up trying hard to scream, 'Cause I saw you getting killed in a terrifying dream, You'd been sent of into war in a land without a name, Not for a god or for your country but a narcissist his game You were running through a desert in the middle of the night, Had a scuffle with some locals who were looking for a fight, In the darkness there were rotors, from the sky there came a light, When they had you in their crosshairs they just shot you there on sight "It was just a bad dream... You're still here sleeping next to me, blissfully unaware..." ("Bad dreams"), wide awake I'm kept, It's been so long since I've properly slept, Why does it always have to be a bad situation? When I could dream about a nice vacation... ("Bad dreams") keep me up at night, Every time it's a different fright, Losing you is what they're all about, I keep waking up when I scream and shout... ("Bad dreams") ("Bad dreams") I tried to take a pill before I went to bed, Woke up the next morning with a fog inside my head, The whole day I felt like I was half-dead, No, I'd rather have those nightmares instead... The dread of losing you and then the reprieve, When I see you next to me I'm overwhelmed with relief, I softly kiss your forehead and curse my fear, But every time I am so glad you're still here ("Bad dreams") ("Bad dreams") ("Bad dreams"), wide awake I'm kept, It's been so long since I've properly slept, Why does it always have to be a bad situation? When I could dream about a nice vacation... ("Bad dreams") keep me up at night, Every time it's a different fright, Losing you is what they're all about, I keep waking up trying to scream and shout... ("Bad dreams") Oh, no, no... ("Bad dreams") OooOooOoohhh... ("Bad dreams"), wide awake I'm kept, It's been far too long since I've properly slept, I'm so tired of all these bad situations I wish my dreams would take a nice vacation... ("Bad dreams") keep me up at night, Every time it's a different fright, Losing you is what they're all about, I keep waking up trying to scream and shout... ("Bad dreams") ("Bad dreams") "I'm so glad that you're still here every time I wake up..."
