Waking Nightmares Lyrics - Singles - Pebaluna

I swear Ive cried a thousand tears 

behind closed doors alone this year 

Be smart now, girl, you must stay strong 

this sorrow will not last for long 

Everyone dreams without sleeping 

but waking nightmares can creep in 

breaking the clay youve made from dust 

adhering fear to your new cuts 

Dont be afraid of being cut down 

this forest is full of a lack of sound 

Branches sway, they play to the rhythm 

find your roots before the division of the schism sets in 

Mother Earth- she gave you sweet life 

from the heavens, took the stars for your eyes 

She gave you skin so you could choose to swim 

either way, Father Times got your number pinned 

to the sins that you have created 

say Only God can alleviate them! 

but Gods too busy fighting these wars 

tell me, whos chosen now? And who should be scorned? 

Well, well- Presidents and Queens alike 

have to say that they fight The Good Fight 

but as a young person in this day and age 

I know not to trust, but I know how to pray 

And I swear weve cried a thousand tears 

behind closed doors alone this year 

Be smart now children, we must stay strong 

this sorrow will not last for long
