Where I See Dreams

In the back corner of my brain where I see dreams

echoes what you just told me

When I climb the stairs to go to sleep

the nightmares hold tightly

The suffering is buffering

I try to cry don’t feel a thing

Do I want to know what the future brings

I’ll say I love you more than I used to

cuz I don’t know what I’d do if I lose you

Is this some sick god's way of making me pray

I say I’m fine but I lie when I say it

We're out of time and there’s no way to change it

I forgot how to feel what am I supposed to say

Can I stop the world from turning

To slow down the burning

We don’t deserve this

Can I make a compromise with the sky

To move less to match your speed

Cuz I can’t stand to watch you bleed

I think of you without crying I guess that’s progress

I might be numb but that don’t mean I feel less

And I’m sleep deprived cuz I miss the nights when the summer sun won’t set

And I’m terrified of the parts of you that I know I can’t forget

So when you go to sleep

I count your precious breaths

Don’t know how many more we might get

Can I stop the world from turning

To slow down the burning

We don’t deserve this

Can I make a compromise with the sky

To move less to match your speed

Cuz I can’t stand to watch you bleed

Time is wasting

I feel you fading

Theres no evading

the blues awaiting

No replacing

The man that made me

Dust fills the hole in my heart

it’s gaping

Seconds lost

They’re all my fault

I’d take them back at any cost

Sell my soul to the crooked clouds

The quiets never felt so loud

Your falling faster

Disappearing laugher

Reaching terminal velocity

Can’t picture life after

The great savior's worst atrocity

And when you go to sleep

I put my head up to your chest

Don’t know how many time it might beat before you’re dead

Can I stop the world from turning

To slow down the burning

We don’t deserve this

Can I make a compromise with the sky

To move less to match your speed

Cuz I can’t stand to watch you bleed

I wish that I could fix it

I wish that I could stop the world from spinning

To have you for a minute more
