Dreamscapes

The deepest parts of me
Are subject to drowning
Waves like the sea
Crash in my psyche
I need something
With meaning

I sleep in dreamscapes
Trapped in a nightmare
I sunk so low I see the bottom staring back at me
Will you save me?
Heal my cancer
I've spent my life putting trust in what was killing me
I've heard this sound before
Dead voices cry out from the shore
Helplessly I'll take my place
Beneath the darkness

And I feel it swimming round in my head
This sickness wants me dead
And I can't find escape or an end
When I'm stuck inside it

I won't lose to myself
So many reasons to live
A life that's worth more than just the pain it gives
I won't play the victim
Though it's the hardest thing that I've ever done

I sleep in dreamscapes
Trapped in a nightmare
I sunk so low I see the bottom staring back at me
Will you save me?
Heal my cancer
I've spent my life putting trust in what was killing me

I've heard this sound before
Dead voices cry out from the shore
Helplessly I'll take my place
Beneath the darkness of the waves

And I feel it swimming around in my head
And it makes me sick
And I can't see escape or an end
But I know I'll find it

So I'll sit alone and try to forget
The sickness I have fed
As it robs me of hope and of rest
Till there's nothing left

I sleep in dreamscapes
Trapped in a nightmare
I sunk so low I see the bottom staring back at me
Will you save me?
Heal my cancer
I've spent my life
