Lyrics
Bad Dream
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Wrong place, wrong time, wrong side of the tracks to be
Split lip, chipped teeth and a taste of tar and concrete
Still in a daze, head in a haze
Somebody. Please. Put me back to sleep
Put me back to sleep, yeah
I'm slipping away, starting to fade, circling the drain
It was all a dream, just a bad, bad dream, yeah
Replay, rewind, remembering piece by piece
Missteps, mistakes, misplaced my dignity
I hung in the bend, got out of hand
Don't understand what is wrong with me
What's wrong with me, yeah
I'm slipping away, starting to fade, circling the drain
It was all a dream, just a bad, bad dream, yeah
A bad, bad dream
A bad, bad dream, yeah
Still in a daze, head in a haze
Somebody please put me back to sleep
Put me back to sleep, yeah
I'm slipping away, starting to fade, circling the drain
It was all a dream, just a bad, bad dream, yeah
Wrong place, wrong time, wrong side of the tracks again
Replay, rewind, repeat, it was all a dream
Just a bad, bad dream
It was all a dream, just a bad, bad dream
A bad, bad dream
A bad, bad dream, yeah
Still in a daze, head in a haze
Somebody please put me back to sleep
Put me back to sleep, yeah
I'm slipping away, starting to fade, circling the drain
It was all a dream, just a bad, bad dream, yeah
Still in a daze, head in a haze
Somebody please put me back to sleep
Put me back to sleep, yeah
I'm slipping away, starting to fade, circling the drain
It was all a dream, just a bad, bad dream
It was all a dream, just a bad, bad dream, yeah
