Dreamless Nightmare

Post by sprinks41 »

this song is about my best friend. she lost her mom about 3 weeks ago to cancer, and i've been helping her get through it a lot. enjoy!

"Dreamless Nightmare"

Verse 1
You blink your eyes and time flies by
No one's ever ready to say goodbye
I'm amazed when I look at how strong you've been
It's the hardest situation to ever be in
But you kept your head up and never looked down
When you needed a friend they were always around
It's hard to deal with this at such a young age
Especially when you've never been open to change

Chorus 1
Like a nightmare that's painful and scary
It's a burden that's impossible to carry
Heartache seems like it will never end
Everyone around hands out their sympathy
But it's not enough to replace your agony
Was it something you did to deserve this?
How do you help with something that's helpless?
It's too real of a nightmare to be a dream
You wanna open your mouth and constantly scream
Please tell me God, tell me why!

Verse 2
You walk around like it's no big deal
But deep down inside it's pain that you feel
Happened so fast, it doesn't seem real
After losing the one on whose shoulder you would lean
You're forced to grow up when you're only nineteen
Life sucks when these problems intervene
The day the pain's gone won't be for a while
But I'm doing all I can to make you smile

Chorus 2
It's a nightmare that's painful and scary
Like a burden that's impossible to carry
When will this heartache come to an end?
Everyone around hands out their sympathy
But no one around understands your agony
There was nothing you did to deserve this
Where'd the times go when you were full of bliss?
It's too real of a nightmare to be a dream
You wanna open your mouth and constantly scream
I'm not ready to say goodbye!

Wow the song is really good and deep! amazing job!
I think the chorus should be shorter maybe, like, a part of it should be probably be a pre-chorus, cuz its too big for a chorus, but overall, the lyrics are great!

and sorry for your friend, wish her well for me.
