AFI - Dream Of Waking

I feel it washing over me,
the slow poisonous tide.
Pins and needles dance on me.
Sickness undefined.
Now I'm afraid to face the sky.
Please someone hear my haunted cries.

[Chorus]
Please let them waken me (x4)
With eyes sewn shut I still can see
(I end up somewhere)
all that is surrounding me.
(somewhere between)
between a dream
(I end up nowhere)
and motionless reality, will I forever LIE?

I feel it binding so smoothly.
I see myself below.
I feel it gnawing, eating me.
Poisonous and slow.
My mind IS FRAYED.
My voice has died.
God let me make the faintest cry.

[Chorus]

bound
By my hands
By my legs
by my eyes
by my mouth
BY everything

Opened up wide for the taking,
just one touch and I'll be yours.
Opened up wide for the breaking.
Just one touch and I'll be yours.

What's on the other side of the mirror?
To try (I cry) to break the static keeping me here in THIS PLACE
What's on the other side of the mirror?
To try (I cry) to break the static keeping me here in THIS PLACE
