They creep in on you even as you dream
Making you believe it's exactly what it seems
They're gonna get you someday
And there's no running away
They're deep beneath your skin
Where they've always been

No one is safe, no one is safe

Falling in your sleep
Don't wake up, just hit the ground
It's real but you don't realize
You're dead, you only act alive

They're right here looking through your eyes
And it's not you, it's them in your disguise
And they become you today
And now you can't break away
You were such an easy prey
You just hand your life away

No one is safe, no one is safe

Falling in your sleep
Don't wake up, just hit the ground
It's real but you don't realize
You're dead, you only act alive

Running in your dreams
Don't wake up, you will be found
It's real but you don't realize
You have to live to be alive

Wake me, wake me, wake me, wake me, wake me up
Wake me, wake me, wake me, wake me up
It's time to stand up and fight for your life
It's time to stand up, it's time to wake up

It's real but you don't realize

Falling in your sleep
Don't wake up, just hit the ground
It's real but you don't realize
You're dead, you only act alive

Running in your dreams
Don't wake up, you will be found
It's real but you don't realize
You have to live to be alive

Falling in your dreams wake up
Wake up, wake up, this is real
You have to live to be alive, be alive, be alive

    My Interpretation

    I this is about someone who is plagued with vivid death themed nightmares & they can no longer decipher anymore between reality and those haunting dreams invading their sleep.
