The Nightmare Goes On lyrics

I cannot shake this notion It haunts me through the streets The height is that of giants The depth is that of seas The words refuse my tongue They tear me from my sleep You ask me why I cry But I cannot bear to speak The nightmare goes on Won't somebody wake me I cannot bear this notion Its hand, an icy clasp I bear its weight at all times You need not even ask This sadness in my eyes The burden drags me down It shames the storm outside God knows I've tried and tried.
