Rise Against - Middle of a Dream lyrics

[Rise Against - Middle of a Dream lyrics]

I still chase your ghost
I still walk these streets and feel
Your hand inside my own
Why do we have to run away to feel at home?
We spend lifetimes waiting
So what's another day
When hope is the only way
We tolerate the pain?

And I woke up in the middle of a dream
Chasing someone or something
A hidden face I've never seen
Where were you when I woke up (Hey)
To a world without your voice
To sing me back to sleep? Don't let go
Are you letting go? (Oooh whoa oh oooh whoa)

I steady myself at the altar
And spell your name inside my mind
We're all someone else when the sun sets
Every time we close our eyes
But there's a world less complicated
Somehow, we buried it alive
It froze like a river in the dead of winter
Deep underneath the ice

And I woke up in the middle of a dream
Chasing someone or something
A hidden face I've never seen
Where were you when I woke up (Hey)
To a world without your voice
To sing me back to sleep? Don't let go
Are you letting go? (Oooh whoa oh oooh whoa)

Of two worlds that I am caught between
(I am caught between)
Which one is real? Which one is just pretend?
'Cause you're a door I cannot close
A static voice that comes and goes
A fatal crash and I can't look away, yeah

And I woke up in the middle of a dream
Chasing someone or something
A hidden face I've never seen
Where were you when I woke up (Hey)
To a world without your voice
To sing me back to sleep? Don't let go
Are you letting go? (Oooh whoa oh oooh whoa)

Still I am wandering (Wake up)
In search of anything (Wake up)
That brings you back to me (Whoa oh oh oh)
That brings you back to me, oooh whoa
Oooh whoa
