My dreams tear at me
Im afraid to fall asleep
Afraid ill fly and fall to the ground
im trapped in a room where the smoke talks so sweet
The scent crawls through my body
No harm will come to you...
Nothing will happen...
BREATHE
They tell me
My Nightmares know my name
Won't let me go... cant find a way OUT
MAKE THIS STOP
keep it coming...
MAKE IT GO AWAY PLEASE
make it stay...
Let me go...

Every night i have this nightmare where these people hold me down and there's smoke everywhere and they're injecting me with things and its a totally real experience. I cry and scream at them to let me go and they never do, they just tell me to breathe... To stay with them just a little longer.
