Well my pillow feels like stone 
On a bed of nails I roll 
The more I scare the bigger you become 
As the sky greets the dawn 
The dark will cloud the sun 
There's a time to die unknown to everyone

I've been told it's here for the taking 
I've been sold on the dreams you've been making 
I don't know what you've been contemplating 
When the lights go out, I'm left in the dark 
You make me play my evil part 

 E5                            C5 
Wake me from this nightmare, I don't wanna sleep alone 
    A5                                        A5 G5 A5 G5 A5 C5 
I'm little bit scared of falling to deep, I 
    E5                          C5 
So wake me from my nightmare, I don't wanna sleep alone 
    A5                                        A5 G5 A5 G5 A5 C5 
I'm little bit scared of falling to deep, I 

(E5 E5 E5 E5 E5 D5 B5 A5)(3X) 

You can here my call 
Cause it's loud and clear 
You gotta catch my fall dispel my fear 

A5 G5 A5 G5 A5 C5
