Lost in a dream
Can't seem to break free
Losing all sense
Of my reality
I want to let go
Of all the things I hold inside
I just need to find a way to stay alive
So come along with me
Hold onto what’s left of me
The memories are slowly drifting away (Away away away)
Drowning in a lake of fear
Trying to grab onto something
Anything that’s real
Still I can’t seem to let go
Of all the things I hold inside
All I ever wanted
Was a way to stay alive
So come along with me
Hold onto what’s left of me
The memories are slowly drifting away (Away away away)
