lyrics

(E7) I keep my eyes open in the middle of the night
so (A) I can see things only seen in the (E7) absence of the light
and I (B7) see they are approaching as they creep up to my bed
and they (A) gently tilt my neck and shove those
(E7) dreams inside my head

refrain:
now (F#m) I'm dreamin' someone else’s dreams
And (G#m) I’m hearing someone else’s screams
Those (C#m) screams can’t be me
Those (G#m) dreams can’t be me
Oh (F#m) this is someone (E7) else’s dream
Oh (F#m) this is someone (E7) else’s dream

If I were to choose my dreams the darkness would subside
The demon whisperin’ in my ear would be an angel by my side
But this demon holds a secret my emotions can’t control
And it’s seeping through the window and eating at my soul

Once upon a time I had dreams and hopes galore
I was satisfied with what I had until I wanted more
But my hunger went in search of something else instead
And then one day I realized it’s not me inside my head
