This is where it starts Haunting me Taunting me Flaunting the moments yet to come Calling me Warning me Evolving me Into something else I don't want to be It's plain to see we are but Creatures in candle light Waiting for Darkness to swallow us all I'm afraid to say Round, and around, and around again These dreams are way too real for me Will you run, or will you stay? For now I'll talk my own self down You're okay And I'm okay These dreams are way too real for me Will you hide or will you seek? For now I'll tell myself just stay Stay awake Stay awake One more time she says For old time sake Deceitful snake Who replies You will not surely die But it's plain to see It's killing me You're killing me Dressed in mourning she says Shake it off me baby Dance with the devil, "keep me in check" she says Dance with the devil, "keep me in check" she says I'm afraid to say Round, and around, and around again These dreams are way too real for me Will you run or will you stay? For now I'll talk my own self down You're okay And I'm okay These dreams are way too real for me Will you hide or will you seek? For now I'll tell myself just stay Stay awake Stay awake Stay awake Stay awake Awake Vacant stare, lost pride Looking oh so mortified Need not to despair Life will lift you up somewhere Hold on, hold on, hold on now What was once lost is now found I'm afraid to say Round, and around, and around again These dreams are way too real for me Will you run or will you stay? For now I'll talk my own self down You're okay And I'm okay These dreams are way too real for me Will you hide or will you seek? For now I'll tell myself just stay Stay awake Stay awake This is where it starts This is where it starts
