Haven't seen the light of day since God knows when Couldn't force a smile even if I tried My heart is empty and my bones won't mend Feels like the river's running dry And I keep on dreaming of the day I die Where I escape the darkness of my own mind It's like a mental funeral, something beautiful I wanna stay, but I know I gotta let it go I keep on dreaming of the day I die And I don't wanna wake up Melancholy creeps in like a thief in the night Resentment tries to have its day I know I'm just another dog in their fight Feeding on the scraps of my mistakes, yeah And I keep on dreaming of the day I die Where I escape the darkness of my own mind It's like a mental funeral, something beautiful I wanna stay, but I know I gotta let it go I keep on dreaming of the day I die And I don't wanna wake up (Wake up) And I don't wanna wake up, yeah And I don't wanna wake up Ooh-ooh, yeah Keep on dreaming Keep on dreaming (Keep on dreaming, ooh) Keep on dreaming Keep on dreaming, yeah Yeah, and I keep on dreaming of the day I die (Keep on dreaming) Where I escape the darkness of my own mind (Keeping on dreaming) It's like a mental funeral, something beautiful I wanna stay, but I know I gotta let it go I keep on dreaming of the day I die And I don't wanna wake up (Wake up) Yeah, I don't wanna wake up (Wake up) Don't wanna wake up
