Vivid Nightmares (Explicit)歌词完整版
Growing up, my mother would ease my mind by reminding me that there’s no monsters hiding underneath my bed
Or hiding in my wardrobe or something
But she didn’t warn me that those monsters can come dressed as people
People that claim they love you more than the sun or the moon, what a tragedy
I still hear them all scream, but it’s quiet for once
A riot to stand my ground, but the silence won’t be loud
Not as long as you’re here
I’m haunted by a face I’ll never see again
Every night I’m on my knees praying that it ends
Spending years of my life tryna make amends
Just to live to see another day where I pretend
Is there a remedy for arson you’d recommend?
So when we’re burning we could say we’re better off as friends
As the ashes of what’s left of us won’t rise again
There’s gonna be another funeral I can’t attend
Where we’re gonna go depends
I hope I’ll lead another life where I won’t have to hide
And openly mourn the tears that’s falling from my eyes
Where I’m brave enough to speak mind Because choosing to be quiet would drown the person I was inside
Fear and beauty aren’t the same thing
Yet I got on one knee and still gave them a ring
Hoping it erases every thought that I think
And help me be content with the destruction I bring
So when the walls come closing in, I’ll have faith again
That our time won’t end, just as long as you’re here
When I was smothered in the dark I saw a distant light
I couldn’t tell if it was real or something in my sight
Premonitions say it’s time to finally say goodbye
So I can be at that place I see when I close my eyes
Knowing you won’t get to see it with me makes me cry
So the words on these prescription pills are filled with lies
Every bird needs a set of wings to fly
And every phoenix needs to turn to ash to rise
The skies hold no remorse towards those who don’t treat each other right
You’d think, by how I speak, I surely take my own advice right?
Missed calls from séance to make it right
Seen vividly through my dreams every time I try to sleep at night
But through the sleepless nights a question plagues my mind
Why am I clinging to a world I want to leave behind?
Maybe the truth is I don’t want to die
Not without knowing what it’s like to truly feel alive
So when the walls come closing in, I’ll have faith again
That our time won’t end, just as long as you’re here
I’m losing track of who was guiding my spirit
I hear a voice when I’m asleep like I’m near it
And It’s an unfamiliar tone so I fear it, my senses pivot backwards
It drawing close every minute
My mirrors covered in towels in case it pays me a visit
To smear the trauma on the canvas that I call my mind
Smother me in lies so it becomes a wall of closure I could hide behind
The longest death you’ll ever feel is staying alive
To only live another day where you pretend to be fine
I’m self harming even though I shouldn’t
Couldn’t shield my baby brother’s eyes when my mother wouldn’t
Who could dry the tears inside my eyes
Should’ve left it in the past when he passed
But like a magic Johnson pass
It will go behind your back when you’re not looking (hee-hee)
Something is fueling the storm
With tears smudging my ink, my knees fell to the floor
Someone’s screaming and breaking the hinges off of the door
I tried to pray it away but it just haunted me more
So until we meet again, I’ll be losing hope
So until we meet again, I’ll be losing hope
So until we meet again, I’ll be losing hope
So until we meet again, I’ll be losing hope
