Don’t Wake Me Up

I've lost my mind 'bout a thousand times
I needed some form of control
Now I'm at peace with myself inside
But surely the pleasure takes its toll
I wouldn't expect you to understand
I live in a world under my command
And you might think I'm crazy and that
I should get some help

Don't wake me up
Up from this high
I wanna sleep for a little while
'Cuz I'm riding on cloud nine and I am never coming down
Don't wake me up
Up from this dream
Let me indulge in my ecstasy
'Cuz I finally found a place like heaven where I'm safe and sound

Wind, oh sweet wind, carry me away
And may all my demons burn in hell
Give me a potion to heal the pain
But don't let this be my last farewell
As my life flashes before my eyes
I see the truth in a thousand lies
You say I'm digging my own grave
And pray to God I'll be saved

Don't wake me up
Up from this high
I wanna sleep for a little while
'Cuz I'm riding on cloud nine and I am never coming down
Don't wake me up
Up from this dream
Let me indulge in my ecstasy
'Cuz I finally found a place like heaven where I'm safe and sound

You know
I can't bare to face reality
The thought of it is haunting me
Just go
Think it's best if you look away
There's no
Fucking words that you could say to me
No cure for insanity
You'd know
If you walked in my shoes for a day

Don't wake me up
Up from this high
I wanna sleep for a little while
'Cuz I'm riding on cloud nine and I am never coming down
Don't wake me up
Up from this dream
Let me indulge in my ecstasy
'Cuz I finally found a place like heaven where I'm safe and sound

Don't wake me up
Don't wake me up
Don't wake me up
'Cuz tomorrow I'll be falling head first right into the ground
