Listen to me

I can't make sense anymore

I've been living in my own safe fantasies

Been dreaming on my own safe lullabies

I always run back to the poison

It's not ever enough

I'd rather lie than face the truth

I'd rather die than hear reason

I can dream a dream of a dream

And believe it is reality

I can imagine that you're listening

But still feel the gnawing

Listen to me

I can't make sense anymore

I've been living in my own twisted fantasies

Been dreaming on my own twisted lullabies

I always tremble in your embrace

It's not ever enough

I'd rather create my own nightmares than live yours

I'd rather die than face reason

I can slit my own wrists

And yet I haven't

I can imagine you'll read between the lines

But still feel the gnawing

Oh, listen to me

I can't make sense anymore

I need your overwhelming truth

I need your overwhelming reason

I always cry when I'm angry

It's not ever enough

I'd rather sleep in a casket than live an insomniac

I'd rather die than face the pain

I can run and never turn back

And tell myself that you don't care

I can imagine you'll give me a dose of something stronger

But still never wake up

Please wake me up
