Sweet Dreams
Aviators Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't mind the noise outside the door
It's just a phantom, nothing more
No need to give yourself a scare
When you glance and no one's there
I don't want to have to hurt you
It's not your fault i felt his rage
Just a child about your age
But something drives me to this place
I can see him in your face
You'll never know the hell I've seen
Don't fear what's coming
We can't fight off the urge inside
It's dark and you're afraid of
The devils that come out at night
Let's make this easy soon you'll haunt these beasts you hated
No need for sleep tonight sweet dreams are overrated
I'm just a whisper in the void
No one's there, you're paranoid
I'm just a trick of your own mind
Blink your eyes once and you'll find
I'm just a ghost inside your head
Don't fear your fate that soon arrives
It's a deadly lullaby
You'll be with us very soon another spirit in the room
Take your place among the lost
Don't fear what's coming
We can't fight off the urge inside
It's dark and you're afraid of
The devils that come out at night
Let's make this easy soon you'll haunt these beasts you hated
No need for sleep tonight sweet dreams are overrated
You can't wake from this dream
No one will hear you screaming
So hold on for the ride
I'll take you with me tonight
This nightmare this prison inside these suits we live in
Don't fear me together we'll have sweet dreams forever
Don't fear what's coming
We can't fight off the urge inside
It's dark and you're afraid of
The devils that come out at night
Let's make this easy soon you'll haunt these beasts you hated
No need for sleep tonight sweet dreams are overrated
Don't fear what's coming
We can't fight off the urge inside
It's dark and you're afraid of
The devils that come out at night




Let's make this easy soon you'll haunt these beasts you hated
No need for sleep tonight sweet dreams are overrated

"It’s my first try at music. Even before Reflections of a Dream. It’s made with Garageband using loops, midi templates, and all that unoriginal stuff. It’s actually not THAT bad, but it’s also made without knowing what I was doing, so I have taken all traces of it off the internet for the most part. xD Little known fact, however: More Than Meets The Eye was actually on that EP way back in early 2011. It was very different, but had the same lyrics."

and

"It’s still terrible as ever, as it’s my first attempt at making music ever. However, since I know what it’s like to have an incomplete collection that desperately wants to be completed, here is the previously extinct Never Say Forever EP.Enjoy! And remember, it’s not supposed to be good. That’s why I deleted it. xD"

Ok, you're right but actually that's not very fair cuz this download just can be found on his tumblr and you can't listen to this songs without downloading it.
But thx. It's nice to listen to his first tries ^^.
