Have you ever woken up from a dream
And noticed you couldn’t move?
You can bat your pretty lashes
And slightly move your toes
But somehow your body has turned to stone
With my body asleep and mind awake
I don’t know the difference between my dream and my present state
Why can I feel the tears streaming from my fluttery eyes
But not your touch?
I am alone here in this ****** body
With nothing but the taste of salt
Where is my lover
Am I still dreaming or is this real life

Have you ever woken up from a dream
And noticed you couldn’t move?
You can bat your pretty lashes
And slightly move your toes
But somehow your body has turned to stone
With my body asleep and mind awake
I don’t know the difference between my dream and my present state
Why can I feel the tears streaming from my fluttery eyes
But not your touch?
I am alone here in this ****** body
With nothing but the taste of salt
Where is my lover
Am I still dreaming or is this real life
