[Verse 1]
His hands are clenched
His knuckles white
He got a gun
And gave up the fight
[Verse 2]
When I found out
I couldn't even cry
Well, I am now
And I'm tryin' to figure out why
[Pre-Chorus]
I'll save it for you
You save me from me
And the hole in my head I can see
Tell her I love her
Tell the kids that I loved them
[Chorus]
Oh, it's a bad dream
(I've got only time)
Yeah, it's a bad dream
(I've got only time)
You know it's a bad dream
(I've got only time)
I wish it was a bad dream
[Refrain]
I wish it was a bad dream
'Cause it's gonna hurt a long time, yeah
[Verse 3]
He lies awake
With saddened eyes
Sleeping babies
Keeping him alive
[Pre-Chorus]
I'll save it for you
You save me from me
And the hole in my head I can see
Tell her I love her
Tell the kids that I loved them
[Chorus]
Oh, it's a bad dream
(I've got only time)
Yeah, it's a bad dream
(I've got only time)
You know it's a bad dream
(I've got only time)
I wish it was a bad dream
(I've got only time)
[Outro]
I wish it was a bad dream
'Cause it's gonna hurt a long time, yeah
