I close my eyes I see a man at my door bowing his head With heavy heart, he tells me "They're dead" I open my eyes He is gone, nothing remains Except fear, a pillow drenched in tear stains
I close my eyes I stand in the Sistine Crying, sobbing- saying "You should be with me" I open my eyes So convinced I had lost you Scared and alone, I don't know what I'd do
I close my eyes Afraid of a nightmare That vision of pain seems to reappear I open my eyes Before I can scream How does this sense of dread come from a dream
