Nightmare

[sweetiegail]

Okay this is one of my favorite little musings I like to call a set of tuneless lyrics. Isn't that hysterical? I don't even have music for this! But it does have a beat which I guess is why I put it here...

Nightmare

It’s too different,
It’s surreal,
It’s surely a nightmare,
That’s just the way I feel

Wake me up when it’s over,
Wake me up when it’s fine,
Shake me awake when dawn breaks,
Now is the time

How could I be so careless?
Could I have prevented this?
I have to start over,
Live a new life

There are times when it just seems,
Like an extremely vivid dream,
But if that’s so,
Why won’t I wake up?

Wake me up when it’s over,
Wake me up when it’s fine,
Shake me awake when dawn breaks,
Now is the time

Dreams are broken, friendships fading,
Life goes cold yet summer’s hardly waning,
Pain still throbs through a bent heart,
Lungs still scream for air in this darkness

Wake me up when it’s over,
Wake me up when it’s fine,
Shake me awake when dawn breaks,

Now is the time

I love the ryhme in this poem. It doesn't feel forced which is grrrreat! I love it. Nice Job.

Thanks For some reason I'm very inclined to rhyme (haha, there I go!)

I like this, but I've always loved references to dreaming. And you said "surreal" which is one of my all-time favorite words. A very nice song indeed, but I think in a few parts it needs some work on rhythm.
