It's only at nights when I start feeling lonely Only at nights when it gets overwhelming I miss those nights, so real, so true I miss those times it was just me and you I still cry to sleep almost every night I wish you were here to hold me right Sometimes in my dreams, I'd see you there Almost as though you're real, I swear When I dream of you, you seem so far Missing you has left me a big scar I called out your name but got no reply Still I shout, until my throat goes dry I don't hear your voice of comfort no more But I shut people out, closing that door I don't need them for you were all I need Yet, in reality, who do I kid? We used to dance under the moonlight We'd look up to the starry night A part of you will always have my heart You light up my world even in the dark I miss the times you'd hold me tight And kiss my forehead after every single fight I loved the way you made me happy And showed me things I never could see I miss those hugs and I really miss that smile I miss the way you drove me crazily wild Thinking of you used to help me get through Now thinking of you just makes me feel blue I lay awake at nights, wondering, what if? Because right now I'm falling off a cliff What if you were still alive and well? You'd be able to pull me out of this hell Memories of us now seemed like a nightmare I'd wake up and find myself gasping for air You're taunting me, you're making me feel weak Stuff my mouth in my pillow to muffle my shriek I hate feeling like this, hate what you did It's not your fault still I blame you for it I can't sleep because I'm afraid you'll appear And just when I reach out, you'll disappear There's this hollow feeling I feel now You're not here to keep me safe and sound Hypnophobia is the fear of sleeping For when I try, I feel like I'm choking
