Sonata Arctica - My Dream's but a Drop of Fuel for a Nightmare lyrics
[Sonata Arctica - My Dream's but a Drop of Fuel for a Nightmare lyrics]
My painted face, I'm a clown
And I'm laughing while my dream
Turns into a nightmare fade away, I'm asleep
Not too deep
The walls of night have left me scarred
The broken glass I stepped on, twice
The ardent spirit's' rusty edge
Decapitate me
I can't sleep, fear darkness
Go through the motions, did I fall asleep?
I'm bowling, the old nine pin
A sign unwanted
Now I'm a target, I'm hot and frozen
Stormy rain I'm stuck in an elevator
Wet from the muddy water
Breathing hot air, winds convey me
Bababababaaaa
The number talks and I cry in my own Hell
Bababababaaaa wide awake, I'm asleep
See a friend as a ghost
I'm skating with a seal
The tarantula, the fly, the broken ring
The dusty little flea
An ugly giant, a disappointed child
Here comes a rabid snake
The broken violin, a wild ballet
Shakespeare and company
Refuse to kill the kitten scratching me
I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling
I'm falling awake
You know, if you believe the
Dreams, the nightly visions, worlds entwined
Then you also fear your shadow, paranoia
Part two
All the good things in my
Life dwell in my mind
Took a wrong lane, every day
I hear myself say
Sickening's this feeling, my life, my hopes
My dream's but a drop of fuel for a nightmare
They all turn out the same
My destiny, my flame believing is control?
No the painting comes alive
Takes me inside a world without a name
A place beyond compare
Believe the dreams that let you sleep
The broken glass you need to sweep
The book you read if you found an explanation
To help you in any way
You are your own prison
Woke up today the good and the bad and
The ugly dreams are gone
Jumped off the carousel
And I'm laughing while my dream
Turns into a nightmare fade away, I'm asleep
Not too deep
The walls of night have left me scarred
The broken glass I stepped on, twice
The ardent spirit's' rusty edge
Decapitate me
I can't sleep, fear darkness
Go through the motions, did I fall asleep?
I'm bowling, the old nine pin
A sign unwanted
Now I'm a target, I'm hot and frozen
Stormy rain I'm stuck in an elevator
Wet from the muddy water
Breathing hot air, winds convey me
Bababababaaaa
The number talks and I cry in my own Hell
Bababababaaaa wide awake, I'm asleep
See a friend as a ghost
I'm skating with a seal
The tarantula, the fly, the broken ring
The dusty little flea
An ugly giant, a disappointed child
Here comes a rabid snake
The broken violin, a wild ballet
Shakespeare and company
Refuse to kill the kitten scratching me
I'm falling, I'm falling, I'm falling
I'm falling awake
You know, if you believe the
Dreams, the nightly visions, worlds entwined
Then you also fear your shadow, paranoia
Part two
All the good things in my
Life dwell in my mind
Took a wrong lane, every day

Sickening's this feeling, my life, my hopes
My dream's but a drop of fuel for a nightmare

Woke up today the good and the bad and
The ugly dreams are gone
