Lyrics
Help me to be patient
And tell me this nightmare
Will not last forever
The nightmare will not last forever
I will be better
Wake me, darling, wake me
When you see the strain
On my eyes and my forehead
I need you for that
Stay tonight and spare me
Another bad dream
I need the light on your face
So don't let me go
Close your eyes and tell me
What you'd like to be
I may write seventeen stories
On seventeen dreams
But everything fails to
Make me forget what has been
Oh please don't let me go
Dull and unoriginal
Is everything that's left
To scrape off of my cutting board
To try and sound pitiful
And though life's not
Wrapped up in clover
Sometimes I hear myself
Cry It's not over
Oh please help me calm down
Help me breath in
Teach me to let it go
Please don't let me go
Nothing much to say then
The candle light's fainting
And sure as hell
It's gonna be dark again
Daylight has burnt again
