I keep on running
Away from something
Under my bed or in my head
It keeps on coming
Can't keep it private
But I stay quiet
It's not always intentional, it's chemical
You have your bias
I always stop myself from loving
The one that could love me good
I never allow myself the pleasure
To feel like I'm understood
Just wake up from this bad dream
You've always known it's in your bloodstream
Just kiss the night goodbye
There's no need to cry
You'll wake up from this bad dream
I keep on fronting
It gives me something
To distract my mind from what feels right
And what I'm wanting
But I can't have it
If I feel static
I stay afraid of the refrain of this bad habit
I always stop myself from loving
The one that could love me good
I never allow myself the pleasure
To feel like I'm understood
Just wake up from this bad dream
You've always known it's in your bloodstream
Just kiss the night goodbye
There's no need to cry
You'll wake up from this bad dream
Have you ever had a dream
Where you can't escape defeat?
Have you ever had that dream?
Have you ever had a dream
Where your free to do anything?
Have you ever had that dream?
Just wake up from this bad dream
You've always known it's in your bloodstream
Just kiss the night goodbye
There's no need to cry
You'll wake up from this bad dream
Just wake up from this bad dream
You've always known it's in your bloodstream
Just kiss the night goodbye
There's no need to cry
You'll wake up from this bad dream
From this bad dream
