Songtexte The Dream 2023 (Continuation) - Eric Dutton

Know that me dreaming is like me breathing
I know I'm cut out for this because I might be bleeding
You say I got nothing to hide, there's something inside
It's coming alive, born out of shame and the want to survive
I - know you're listening but are you hearing me?
Demons are here in me, fighting for my fucking life
There's fear in me, misery
I put an end to it, finally
How cruel time can be is astonishing, honestly
Just a speck in the void, probably I am
Just a drop in the fire, trying to win my trials
Like a caged lion, I ain't dying till y'all do
I got to be as sure as azure that my dreams symbolically are blue
You know I'll call you
When the time is right and my mind is like
Is it time to write?
The answer is never no
To do so would be damage you've never known
Opportunity knocks but it ain't holding the door
So when your back's against the wall you better hold your own, cause

It's in my head I'll never find my way
I just can't leave it up to fate
And when I'm dead, my words won't fade away
Please just beam me up to space
Awake? I'm dreaming
I'm never gonna stop
Asleep? I'm dreaming
I'm never gonna stop

I've hurt people I care about, that's not something that I'm about
That's the personality trait of mine that we all can do without
Prone to these bursts of panicky rage
It's like something takes over and that ain't okay
Saying some shit is a habit to change
No room for this shit in my talented brain
Blowing up in the wrong way, challenge to say
If you see me beaming, I just balance my day
Look into space for a planet to aim to
Unlucky that gravity would rather betray you
Whoa, hold up, this that fever dream
I need to break me out and get me to see
I'm full of love but I keep it deep
The dream is now me healing the wounds that I caused
I'm sorry, dawg
I said I'm sorry, dawg
I said I'm sorry, dawg
You know I fall apart without the shit we do
It gets me through, I'm feeling like a fricking fool
If there was ever catastrophe
This motherfucker would bat for me
Don't mistake this apology for apathy
I wanna be a better man, please give me a chance to be
I wanna be a better man, please give me a chance to be
I wanna be a better man, please give me the chance to be

It's in my head I'll never find my way
I just can't leave it up to fate
And when I'm dead, my words won't fade away
Please just beam me up to space
Awake? I'm dreaming
I'm never gonna stop
Asleep? I'm dreaming
I'm never gonna stop
