lyrics

Remember the cold night in December,
When you pulled the sheets over your head
You were just a little boy,
Not even twelve years old,
The weight of the world on your shoulders

And every night when you go to sleep
You realize your dreams bring no peace
So every night you will try to stay awake

Your childhood happy dreams, now wars and battle scenes,
A cold reality you can't escape
You say "I'm too young for this,
No power I possess can bring any healing"

And every night when you go to sleep
You realize your dreams bring no peace
So every night you will try to stay awake

There's a whole world outside of your window
It's full of shadows that dance through the night
And there's people who do such unspeakable things,
You lose sense of what's wrong and what's right

And every night when you go to sleep
You realize your dreams bring no peace
So every night you will try to stay awake
