Haven't seen the light of day since God knows when
Couldn't force a smile even if I tried
My heart is empty and my bones won't mend
Feels like the river's running dry

And I keep on dreaming of the day I die
Where I escape the darkness of my own mind
It's like a milky row, something beautiful
I wanna stay, but I know I gotta let it go
And I keep on dreaming of the day I die
And I don't wanna wake up

Melancholy creeps in like a thief in the night
Resentment tries to have its day
I know I'm just another dog in their mind
Feeding on the stress of my mistakes, yeah

And I keep on dreaming of the day I die
Where I escape the darkness of my own mind
It's like a milky row, something beautiful
I wanna stay, but I know I gotta let it go
And I keep on dreaming of the day I die
And I don't wanna wake up

Yeah, I don't wanna wake up
I don't wanna wake up

Ooh-ooh, yeah
Keep on dreaming
Keep on dreaming
Keep on dreaming
Keep on dreaming

Yeah, and I keep on dreaming of the day I die (keep on dreaming)
Where I escape the darkness of my own mind (keeping on dreaming)
It's like a milky row, something beautiful
I wanna stay, but I know I gotta let it go
And I keep on dreaming of the day I die
And I don't wanna wake up

Yeah, I don't wanna wake up
Don't wanna wake up
