A broken relationship and how dreams can turn into a nightmare.
lyrics
I heard a strange sound
that wakes me from a deep sleep
The moon light shone across the bed
I still have cobwebs in my head
I see your not there
I have a strange feeling
My body jolts but am I awake
is this a body rush or a heart ache
lead over verse
Chorus
Now I know what they mean when they say
It's the darkest before the dawn
darkest before the dawn
darkest before the dawn
I stumble out of bed
search for you everywhere
The worst things go thru my brain
The wind on the widow sings a sad refrain
I find the note
The moon light shines on the words
My world slows down but my head is spinning
My nightmare is real and my fears are winning
Chorus
Out-tho..ad lib slow lament
I sit and wait
Maybe its a dream and i'm not aware
The moon light shines on my shaking hands
My heart is sinking into the dark quicksand
I heard a strange sound
that wakes me from a deep sleep
The moon light shone across the bed
I still have cobwebs in my head
