Nightmare Lyrics by Dylan Fraser

The World Isn’t Big When You Know How It Works

2021

[Verse 1]
On the train again to somewhere
Between my home and what I'm looking for
I'm getting restless, drop my shit down
On the floor in number sixty-four
I'm at the function, I can't function
A rollercoaster on the bathroom floor
It's getting late out, I should check out
The morning's only gonna ask for more
[Pre-Chorus]
And I wish I could tell you that I'm taking it back
But I couldn't hold another panic attack
You tell me I'm wrong but then you're giving me nothing
Yeah, you're giving me nothing and they're me holding back
Breaking my fist again the wall, trying to make your castle fall
'Cause you're giving me nothing, yeah, you're giving me nothing
Yeah, you're giving me nothing
[Chorus]
I'm in a nightmare but I didn't fall asleep
I'm on the roof of the fucking hotel
Just so they can hear me speak
Feels like I'm running around
But I'm wasting my time
'Cause my legs are so damn weak
I'm in a nightmare but I didn't fall asleep
I didn't fall asleep
[Verse 2]
Call it fate or a big mistake
If I don't laugh, there's gonna be some tears
Don't get me started, I'll stay guarded
I can't trust someone who's never feared
That they're not right and that's alright
But at least admit it, I can't stand it when they don't
I can't stand it when you don't
[Pre-Chorus]
And I wish I could tell you that I'm taking it back
But I couldn't hold another panic attack
You tell me I'm wrong but then you're giving me nothing
Yeah, you're giving me nothing and you're me holding back
Breaking my fist again the wall, trying to make your castle fall
'Cause you're giving me nothing, yeah, you're giving me nothing
Yeah, you're giving me nothing
[Chorus]
I'm in a nightmare but I didn't fall asleep
I'm on the roof of the fucking hotel
Just so they can hear me speak
Feels like I'm running around
But I'm wasting my time
'Cause my legs are so damn weak
I'm in a nightmare but I didn't fall asleep
I didn't fall asleep
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, you're giving me nothing, yeah, you're giving me nothing
Yeah, you're giving me nothing, yeah, you're giving me nothing
Yeah, you're giving me nothing, yeah, you're giving me nothing
Yeah, you're giving me nothing, yeah, you're giving me nothing
[Outro]
Bad dream, wake up
No sleep, no luck
Red eye, no lie
But I coulda sworn I never went to bed
Bad dream, wake up
No sleep, no luck
Red eye, no lie
It's fine, that's right
Bad dream, wake up
No sleep, no luck
Red eye, no lie
But I coulda sworn I never went to bed
Bad dream, wake up
No sleep, no luck
Red eye, no lie
It's fine, that's right
