Car Seat Headrest - Dreams Fall Hard lyrics

Last night I dreamed I had to tell My parents about us When I woke up I was crying Mother shook me by the shoulders Said "you're ruining your life!" I'm sorry that your bright young boy is dying I know I dishonored The family name But all I ever had was my heart And I wake up a kid In a bed miles from home But I'm too old to get a new start I've heard I talk in my sleep But my voice is too weak To hear the words I say I've been trying like hell To wake myself up But dreams fall hard today In a vision of d**h You breathe your last breath And all that I hold is cold embers And I sing in your ear But there's nothing to hear Just a nightowl in burial chambers You say that you love me And I write it all down So when you're gone I'll remember But as I get old I find I can't trust my own mind And your words all break down into laughter I've heard I talk in my sleep But my voice is too weak To make out the words I say I've been trying like hell To wake myself up But dreams fall hard today I watch myself falling apart My body can't keep up with my heart What I see I can't understand This sweet boy's becoming a nervous old man I wake up with tears Not yet dried on my face No comfort in the cold light of morning Young men see visions And old men dream dreams And it all amounts to a warning I've heard I talk in my sleep But my voice is too weak To hear the words I say I've been trying like hell To wake myself up But dreams fall hard today And by the time I get it out of my mind Night has fallen upon me again
