I fell asleep in a chair, but woke up in a nightmare
So real I thought I lived it, all my fears were there
Like running through high water, I can't get nowhere
Threatened by my future, and ghosts from way back when
Old cold loves drop in, to forsake me again
I forgive and forget, then I forget I forgave
Like running through high water, and I cannot be saved
In my childhood home, big like when I was three
Mom and Dad are there, but they don't notice me
And my wife looks right through me and then she's gone
My baby can't be found
Then in a huge complex with dead end halls and walls
Can't find my guitar either, and I never set it down
He's after me, and he's closing in
Can't get away, this is a showdown
Got to fight but I can't hit hard, and I'm up against the wall
In front of the new pool, at my high school
Reach behind to find a pop top, from1964
And it fits like a ring on my finger, with a sharp metal tab, sticking out
I'm gonna gouge that bully, gonna cut him up and down
I wake up for a second, then back to my dream
And I cut him
Now it's dark and I'm much older than I even really am
Slow then slower, like running through high water
In a dark alley toward the light of a street
But before I can get there, I'm climbing uphill
I fall but still try to crawl
I always thought I could do anything, but I'm not going to make it this time
Crawling slow then slower until I roll over
I see the light out of reach and bright
So this is how it ends
And I look up to see the chair and the room where I fell asleep a few seconds ago
So real I thought I lived it, all my fears where there
Like running through high water, I can't get nowhere
