Danielle McLean - Real Life's a Nightmare

How could you be so okay right now
When I'm left with a broken heart
Take it day by day
But how do I heal from such a scar
Same old endless cycles and I think might still be in denial
You ask me how I am and I lie I'm alright
But these dreams won't stop at night
And I wake up to real life
Where I wish I hadn't woke up at all
My friends say I'll be fine
That I need to give it time
They'll be here for me if I fall
But I can barely sleep
I can barely think
I can barely breathe, since you're not here
And compared to my dreams
Real life's a nightmare
Say you wanna be friends right now
When Im left tearing myself apart
Really wish we could turn things around
Fix the mistakes
Make a brand new start
Same old endless thoughts
How could you be so okay when I'm not
You said you're doing good
If that's true
Did this mean anything to you?
These dreams won't stop at night
And I wake up to real life
Where I wish I hadn't woke up at all
My friends say I'll be fine
That I need to give it time
They'll be here for me if I fall
But I can barely sleep
I can barely think
I can barely breathe, since you're not here
And compared to my dreams
Real life's a nightmare
And I hope you see my face in your sleep
And I hope it haunts you like you haunt me
And I never forgot how you told me
You don't ever remember your dreams
And I guess that's why it was so easy to forget me
These dreams won't stop at night
And I wake up to real life
Where I wish I hadn't woke up at all
My friends say I'll be fine
But I'm dying inside
It's only you I wanna call
But I can barely sleep
I can barely think
I can barely breathe, since you're not here
And compared to my dreams
Real life's a nightmare
