Mister Sandman, bring me a dream Make it the cutest that I've ever seen Then tell her that my lonesome nights are over Mister Sandman, I'm so alone Don't have nobody to call my own Please turn on your magic beam Mister Sandman, bring us a dream Give her

But does it matter then See everything go End of all things The life that we know Shift your point of view You've been warned This one-way ticket is for you When all the laughter dies We'll see nothings and realize

Then I think that I've seen enough Oh, I've given you all of my love But it's still not enough Oh, if this is what dreams are made of Give a little time to me Give a little trust and you'd see Give a little peace of mind You never know what you might

As I'm pulled under the tides of this fast paced world I refuse to see Time will always be the thing that kills me truly Open these eyes waking from a dream feigning Absolution at the sight of your demise I know what I must do Swallow every blasphemy

And I'm thinking, just another breath. Sometimes I hate that chaos surrounds me When all the answers that I seek are around me Am I drowning, am I fading away, Or am I living up to all your dreams that made me this way Everything is so complex Everyday

So suddenly, I'm in love with a stranger I can't believe that she's mine Now all I see is you with fresh eyes, fresh eyes I can't believe that she's mine, yeah And now all I see is you with fresh eyes, fresh eyes You dress up just a little and I'm like,

Someone to watch over me Won't you tell him please to put on some speed Follow my lead, oh, how I need There's a saying old, says that love is blind Still we're often told, "seek and ye shall find" So I'm going to seek a certain lad I've had in mind

(With you) With you It seems like they all want me to fail But I’m not going back Not going back, baby Please tell me you don’t want me to fail ‘Cause I’m not going back Not going back I could've been a tragedy That’s why these fake niggas who call me

Why I was the one worth leaving Where I am (you seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex) Where I am (a stranger with your door key explaining that I am just visiting) Where I am (and I am finally seeing why I was the one worth leaving)

And the fallen will get down on his knees You gonna face the mirror, you gonna seek another day And forever the man in the coat Then along came the mirror and the ripper What do you see in the night? Passing shadows that can scar your soul And make you
