When you whisper to me in my sleep.
Tell me that you want me and that the want has turned into a need...
Barely brushing your hand across my hair...
Holding into me in my slumber...
There you go kissing my knuckles,
There you ignite a storm,
There you drown me inside of you,
There you dissolve every piece of my being,
There you make me forever yours,
There you claim me when I'm asleep...
And as the alarm goes off,
I'm wide awake feeling the tingles...
As they slowly fade,
With the smell of the perfume you wear,
With your voice that soothes me,
That brings me back my love, life, and hope...
With the sight of your eyes that I couldn't see while mine were close,
'Cause when you whispered to me in my sleep...
I felt that that time you've gone was a sick nightmare,
Messing with every piece of me,
Ripping all the threads that hold me onto life,
Taking everything you claimed away from myself, away from me...
Although dreaming of you was beautiful and sweet,
Telling me everything I'm desperate to hear...
Holding me so I know I'm safe only whenever you're near...
Waking up from sleep is traumatizing,
When you've already gave up reality to believe that dream...
Then the dust of the dream is blown into your face leaving you with fear.
Leaving me without every piece of myself...
Leaving me with nothing...
And that's how dreaming of you,
Turns into nightmare...
Just as I open the lid of my eyes,
To see the truth,
That truth I've never wanted to believe...
