going to bed, gotta ease this load

this waking world ain’t fit for dreamers

and my head’s always been in the clouds

just gotta close my eyes

and let reality slip away

find my place without want or need

i drift along with mind full of fog

lost and scared of what will never be

but when it all shuts down

when the music stops

i see your face

and feel it as my heart drops

when it all shuts down

and the static quits

i see your face

and the truth of it hits

so i’m gonna head off

and rest my weary head

go to a place where it all makes sense

where the voices can’t reach

and the emptiness fades

and in your arms is where i’ll stay

cause in that place you love me back

and hold off the demons before they attack

but when it all shuts down

when the music stops

i see your face

and feel it as my heart drops

when it all shuts down

and the static quits

i see your face

and the truth of it all hits

there is no pain

when consciousness fades

there ain’t no guilt

no souls left to save

in this hidden realm

away from light and fear

far far from the struggles

yours is the only voice i hear

but when it all shuts down

when the music stops

i see your face

and feel it as my heart drops

when it all shuts down

and the static quits

i see your face

and the truth of it hits
