In My Dreams
All New Atmosphere Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm patiently waiting
These feelings are changing
I have no control of the risk that I'm taking
The truth fills it's purpose it just takes some time
It might take way too long.

It's always been me and you plus one
We shared a bed hell we shared our love
Ignoring this tension leaves me so dependent
I spend all my time in my dreams and it's killing me

I'm not scared to get there
It's all I have can't you see
I spend all my time in my dreams…

This conversation needs no explanation
There isn't a story to tell why I hate them
The fact of the matter this ends in disaster
I've looked through your book cus I wrote every chapter

But in the lies we will fall apart
But in the dark we'll repeat from the start

I'm not scared to get there
It's all I have can't you see
I spend all my time in my dreams
I don't care
Please stay here
It's all I have can't you see
I spend all my time in my dreams and it's killing me

Cold hands and strange stares
Holding on to who cares
Gentle kind but unfair
Tell me will you be there

It wouldn't matter if it wasn't such a habit
I'd give anything to breathe but my intentions
Wouldn't have it
Gave me strange stares
Who cares?
Unfair,




I'm Here
Tell me will you be there.
