Nightmare Songtext
Tell me 'bout it when you’re sober
Wake me up when your nightmare is over
And all our days are getting colder
Lay me down, I’ll be closer to you
Even if I try
And god, I’ve tried so many times
And I gave you up
Then I got hope in us but not very much
My heart’s not strong enough to hold you (how could I hold you?)
I doubt that’s what I’m supposed to do (but you want me to)
And I’m not strong enough to push you away
Cause I’m not you
Friday nights are your shelter
Wake me up when your numb and your head hurts
But the pain is getting worse
Pour your heart out, I’m still confused
Evеn if I try
And god, I’ve tried so many times
And I gavе you up
Then I got hope in us but not very much
My heart’s not strong enough to hold you (how could I hold you?)
I doubt that’s what I’m supposed to do (but you want me to)
And I’m not strong enough to push you away
Cause I’m not you
Wake me up when your nightmare is over
But maybe you’re not getting closer
Wake me up when your nightmare is over
When it’s over
Is it ever over?
My heart’s not strong enough to hold you (how could I hold you?)
I doubt that’s what I’m supposed to do (but you want me to)
And I’m not strong enough to push you away
Cause I’m not you
I'm not you
I'm not you
I'm not you
Wake me up when your nightmare is over
And all our days are getting colder
Lay me down, I’ll be closer to you
Even if I try
And god, I’ve tried so many times
And I gave you up
Then I got hope in us but not very much
My heart’s not strong enough to hold you (how could I hold you?)
I doubt that’s what I’m supposed to do (but you want me to)
And I’m not strong enough to push you away
Cause I’m not you
Friday nights are your shelter
Wake me up when your numb and your head hurts
But the pain is getting worse
Pour your heart out, I’m still confused
Evеn if I try
And god, I’ve tried so many times
And I gavе you up
Then I got hope in us but not very much
My heart’s not strong enough to hold you (how could I hold you?)
I doubt that’s what I’m supposed to do (but you want me to)
And I’m not strong enough to push you away
Cause I’m not you
Wake me up when your nightmare is over
But maybe you’re not getting closer
Wake me up when your nightmare is over
When it’s over
Is it ever over?
My heart’s not strong enough to hold you (how could I hold you?)
I doubt that’s what I’m supposed to do (but you want me to)
And I’m not strong enough to push you away
Cause I’m not you
I'm not you
I'm not you
I'm not you
