You wanna fuck when I wanna fight
Telling me I gotta put the bottle down
Walk around in circles in the dead of night
I came home hoping you passed out
And I messed up when the Sun came up and I saw you by my side
Say we’re done and I took you back
But the memories don’t lie
And I'm scared it goes crumble
Battered and bruised
We’re just strangers
Oh-oh-oh-oh, wake me up when the nightmares over
Oh-oh-oh-oh, round and round but we're going nowhere
Who the hell is she, who the fuck are we, we, we
Can’t escape like a car crash burning
Oh-oh-oh-oh, wake me up when the nightmares over
Don’t even try rewrite your lies
I'm with him every time you play within
And he don’t care and I don’t care
You’re never there till I'm gone, can’t stay away
All my scars that you open up
Do you have to bleed me dry?
Had your suitcase packed, now it’s in the trash
And you know the reason why
And I swear it goes crumble
Battered and bruised
We’re just strangers
Oh-oh-oh-oh, wake me up when the nightmares over
Oh-oh-oh-oh, round and round but we're going nowhere
Who the hell is she, who the fuck are we, we, we
Can’t escape like a car crash burning
Oh-oh-oh-oh, wake me up when the nightmares over
Oh-oh-oh-oh, wake me up when the nightmares over
Oh-oh-oh-oh, round and round but we're going nowhere
Who the hell is she, who the fuck are we, we, we
Can’t escape like a car crash burning
Oh-oh-oh-oh, wake me up when the nightmares over
