Violent Dreams

[Verse 1]
Violent dreams, every night
Lately I've been waking out of urgency
Something I said, something I did
Is bringing on this violent emergency
One black day in ghostly white
For just another sleepless night

[Chorus]
And one more day
I'm always taking the dive
And all it takes
Is all I can give, yeah
All my waking hours just to see you live
Through this sleepless night

[Verse 2]
Violent dreams, every night
Patiently waiting in the waiting room
Hospital whites, hospital lights
Burning an unbearable fluorescent gloom
Still with both my eyes shut tight
It's just another sleepless night

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
And you behind closed eyes
Behind closed doors
"First thing tomorrow," someone said
She's hanging by a needle and a thread

[Verse 3]
Violent dreams, every night
Turning empty pages of old magazines
Turning instead, of turning in bed
Turning off the static on the TV screen
In the vending machine light
It's just another sleepless night

[Chorus]
