I cover my room in beaded dreamcatchers,
but my nightmares won't leave me alone,
They sit in my room, hiding under my pillows,
Until they know I'm the only one home,
I shiver and I shake, I toss and I turn,
I rub my eyes raw until they blister and burn,
But somehow the ache of exhaustion takes hold,
My eyes wallow shut, and the wind blows cold,
Cold.
So dreamcatcher, dreamcatcher,
Catch me a dream,
One of the ones that wake me with a scream,
Dreamcatcher, dreamcatcher tell me no lie,
Are my nightmares the place that I'll live when I die?
Die.
I shout and I scream as the blood paints a stream,
In the darkest part of my very best dream,
I've been here so many times before,
I know there is something I'm looking for,
It's easy to get lost,
when you're running through your thoughts,
and you can't seem to find the door,
But I've been here so many times before,
I know there is something I'm looking for.
So dreamcatcher, dreamcatcher,
Catch me a dream,
One of the ones that wake me with a scream,
Dreamcatcher, dreamcatcher tell me no lie,
Are my nightmares just things that I've seen with my own two eyes?
My eyes, My eyes.
I cover my room in beaded dreamcatchers,
but my nightmares won't leave me alone.
