I woke up with too many thoughts in my head
and reality was a bitter pill to swallow
I was relieved to find out that my brother wasn't dead
but the truth rang out, the truth rang out, I'm hollow
I've been through hell and back in my mind
but at the funeral I was the only one who cried
I needed you to tell me it was gonna be alright
but I woke up and you still weren't in my life
calm me down, calm me down
calm me down, calm me down
these horrors creep under my eyelids and chain me to my bed
and my thoughts are being molested
they're the demons that haunt me subconsciously taunting me with truths
and they come alive at night where they are vested
calm me down, calm me down
calm me down, calm me down
I'm reliving this nightmare in my head
it's something that I shouldn't have said
I'm reliving this nightmare in my head
I'm reliving this nightmare 'till I'm dead
I open my eyes and I don't know what's real or what is fake
or if I'm really awake
