Wake Me Up (When This Nightmare Ends)
Okay, before reading this, I just want everyonto know that I wrote it while listening to that new, rather anooying, Greenday song because I thought their lyrics were pretty lame and weak (ex. where he is whining about paying the bills... yeah 21 mil dollar contacts left and right, but it just doesnt help pay for anything, huh? Losers.) Anyway, here is how it should have gone.
Born again, another day,
My shell is tattered, and that's okay,
Died again, late last night,
Bled again to understand,
Wake my up when this nightmare ends,
Another day,another misery,
Another funeral that I can't stand,
Poor and broken, shattered and torn,
A rainy night that just won't fade,
Wake me up when this nightmare ends,
Alone and starving for a change,
Missing my one and only love,
As this darkened cloud hangs above me,
I wonder when we'll meet again,
Wake me up when this nightmare ends,
Transfixed and hallowed out,
Nothing left but flesh and blood,
Drained of all that I was,
Nothing but a shattered man,
Wake me up when this nightmare ends,
Wake me up when my time is done,
Wake me up when my love lives again.
