Nightmare Lyrics

Another night
Spending time in a city that I don't like
Where neon really outshines the moonlight
I call you up at 2:45 your time

Pick up the phone
There's not a soul in the streets and I'm all alone
Need to hear your voice, not the dial tone
Nothing on me but day old cigarette smoke

I feel like I've been gone so long
Don't know where I can call a home
It goes on, it goes on

I wake up, you're not there
It's a nightmare, it's a nightmare

Can't wake up, it's not fair
It's a nightmare, it's a nightmare

Half asleep
Proud to see your face pasted on a screen
It's nowhere near you naked and next to me
But it beats just skin on wet concrete

I start to know
There's no hope in making it back home
I can't cope with doing it on my own
If this city don't sleep then it doesn't show

I feel like I've been gone so long
Don't know where I can call a home
It goes on, it goes on

I feel so low so off and on
Losing the only thing I want
Then you're gone, and I'm gone

I wake up, you're not there
It's a nightmare, it's a nightmare

Can't wake up, it's not fair
It's a nightmare, it's a nightmare
