When you dream of [F] falling to sleepless sleep [A]
With the smell of [F]
panic and [G] pain
[A]
My veins are [F] aching from the [Dm] distant [A] grief
And the cuffs are [F]
emotional [A] waves
Alright, can I hold you now?
It doesn't matter, it's over your head
It's alright, no more moving [D] your ears
It's alright, don't feel a little [A] fear
[Am] It's alright, it's over [A]
[D] your head
[Em] [Dm]
It's alright, you wake up in your [A]
bed
Silhouettes like [Am] shivering [Dm] ancient [A] feelings
Where color, love, [F]
boredom, [G] walls and [F] [A] walls
Shudderings of looking [F] in the [Dm] foggy [A] ceiling
Can't keep [F]
sleepless at night
[G] [A]
Alright, can I hold you now?
It doesn't matter, it's over your head
It's alright, no more moving your [Am] ears
[Dm] It's alright, [C] don't feel [Dm] a little [A] fear
It [C] [D] doesn't matter, it's over your [Em] head

can you feel the sunlight?
I'm on the beach, let's chill at night
I don't know why [F] I start walking around
[C] Hey, [Dm] [A] look at me coming out [Dm] of [G] the sleepless [Dm] night
[Am] [Em]
[Dm] All [Am] my stupid dreams
I woke up
And [G] [Cm] [Dm]
[Am] [Dm]
[A] [F]
you're closing your eyes
[Em] So [D] close, but so [C] far
