[Riff 1] x2 /w lyrics:

The sleep is still in my eyes, the dream is still in my head.
I heave a sigh and sadly smile, and lie a while in bed.

[Riff 2] x3 /w lyrics:

I wish that it might come to pass, not fade like all my dreams.
Just think of what my life might be, in a world like I have seen.
I don't think I can carry on, carry on this cold and empty life.
Oh, no...

[Guitar Solo] in C over [Riff 2] x5:

[Riff 3] x1 /w lyrics:

My spirits are low in the depths of despair, my lifeblood... spills over.
