I Never Want To Wake

lyrics

It’s a nightmare but I never want to wake
From the sweet love that surrounds me every day
From my best friends all their wisdom and their grace
From an old love and the beauty that we made
From everyone I’ve ever known
Because I love them all in their own way


I’m dreaming alone but only in dying
You’re dreaming alone but only in dying
We’re dreaming alone but only in dying


It’s a sad dream but I never want to wake
From the dead stars in their centuries of dark
From an island in the cold grey Nordic air
From the starlings in the setting western sky
From the river that runs green through my city
To the tragic end of everything


It doesn’t matter how I feel anyway
Happy, sad; I’m empty as ice inside
It doesn’t matter what I do anyway
Live or die or don’t live until I do

Another night alone in my quiet room
Reflections of myself in a dark window
What keeps me from my life is a pane of glass
My apathy and this indifferent world I see
