lyrics

My life is yearning for something, I require some,
Success or redress, into some happy jolly,
Feeling I’m reeling a shark into my small boat,
Lonely the ocean, the coastline, is far away from me.

I know this, I know this.

I am so scared now I’m drifting away from land,
Unknown the life forms underneath me, my heart stops,
I see you near me I smile, cos it’s only a dream
I see you near me I smile, cos it’s only a dream

Only a dream, only, only
Making me scream, only, only
Only a dream, only only
Making me scream…

My mind is racing, I’m pacing around this small place,
I have no feeling, I’m numbing, my pain has been erased,
It’s only dreaming, but it’s seeming that I won’t awake,
I test the water, it’s deeper, than my first ideas,

I know this, Iknow this

I’m sinking down now I’m thinking this lead suit is fixed,
Onto my body, it’s on me, I can’t escape I have no magic tricks,
I see you near me I smile, cos it’s only a dream
I see you near me I smile, cos it’s only a dream

Only a dream, only, only
Making me scream, only, only
Only a dream, only only
Making me scream…
