Close your eyes

To the world outside

It's a shit storm so they say

It's just you and I

On an endless holiday.

We'll pass the time

Pour a drink get high

In a futile state of play

Try to numb the truth

There may be nothing left to save.

Well if that's the way it is

Then pass me one last hit

Cause the voices in my head make me insane.

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 pallid paradise

There's no relief

When there is no end 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.

If you please I must insist

Please concede with just one kiss

Got the doldrums once again I cannot lie.

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.

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 that pretty gown

We got nothing left to lose

As it all burns down

At least I'll die with you.

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

Oh-oh-oh...
