I start to fear

Do you ever close your eyes,
And a nightmare arrives?
Do you ever fall asleep,
And feel your fears run skin-deep?

I start to fear…

I'm scared to go to sleep,
I'm scared to even dream,
I'm scared that I might scream,
And show that I am weak.

Nightmare
After nightmare
After nightmare

Danger, war,
Death at the core…

I can't sleep anymore,
I can't dream like before.
I have lost all my faith,
I have too much fear of death.

Life is beautiful
Whenever I'm awake,
So why nothing feels usual
Before from sleep I wake?

Nightmare
After nightmare
After nightmare

I feel delusional,
Afraid because of dreams,
But after so many dreams,
That end in funerals.
I start to fear
This isn't just a dream,
That all is meant to be,
That everything I fear
Will become real.

I start to fear
This isn't just a dream.
