Whisper to me words that I can't hear
I'm still here, with a rainbow near
With a hand full of stolen diamonds
Far on the hills, with my worn heels
And nobody knows what a man feels
Nobody believes that I've seen frightened lions
Take me to your magic place
Where I can see your face covered by lace
In the timeless land with my rhymes
Leave me there to rot in the deepest grave
In my silly rave, without someone to save
With all my memories buried in the lost time
Wake me up from my nightmares
I'll find something worse when I'm awake
Wake me up from my nightmares
Please don't tell me about today, for old times' sake
Then take me on the ocean of lost loves
With my cut gloves, under the flying doves
On the silver water now I'm sailin'
But the bottom is too shiny to be seen
My soul isn't very clean and I'm too lean
To be hungry for what is rainin'
Smoke's human forms, all around me
Laughing at me, even if they can't see
Runin' blindly in their lives, they won't stop
And they're slowly disappearing in the sunset
After I've met them, I don't know where they will get
Maybe to my ragged head, when I reach the top
Wake me up from my nightmares
I'll find something worse when I'm awake
Wake me up from my nightmares
Please don't tell me about today, for old times' sake
