Like waking from a dream, a perfect, seamless dream
Bewildered by the contrast, you first doubt reality
Holding to lost happiness, incredulous stubbornness
It finally dawns on you, the realization excruciating
What once was, no longer is; what once loved, no longer breaths

Like waking from a nightmare, a terrifying, all-consuming nightmare
Terror drenching your soul, you first refuse reality
Pain reluctant to recede, too fresh to secede
Daylight chases the last shadows, the warmth comforting
What once died, could it be? what once was lost, came back to me
