"Wake Me When It's Over" lyrics - MYLES KENNEDY
Close your eyes to the world outside
It's a shitstorm so they say
It's just you and I on an endless holiday
We're past the time, pour a drink and high
In a feudal state of play
Try to numb the truth, there may be nothing left to say
[Pre-Chorus 1:]
Well, it that's the way it is
Then pass me one last hit
'Cause the voices in my head make me insane
[Chorus:]
You can wake me when it's over
When the nightmare finally ends
You can wake me when it's over
So that I can dream again
Rations now as the rain comes down
On this palled paradise
There's no relief when there is no wind in sight
Wanna slip away from the dead and grey
Can you ease my worried mind?
If you're in the mood, well you know I've got the time
Yeah I do
[Pre Chorus 2]
If you please, must insist
Please concede with just one kiss
That the [?] runs once again, I cannot lie
[Chorus:]
You can wake me when it's over
When the nightmare finally ends
You can wake me when it's over
So that I can dream again
[Bridge:]
If we could get back to the order
The way it was once again
Please don't tell me that it's over
I'm scared as hell, I can't pretend
What comes next, well I must confess
I haven't got a clue
For all I know the end is coming soon
Wanna lay you down in a pretty gown
We got nothing left to lose
As it all burns down at least I'll die with you
[Chorus:]
So baby, take me now it's over
I'm afraid we've reached the end
But it might save me when it's over
To know I died with my best friend
