Could I Be Dreaming?

A near imitation
In front of me
A clear indication
I'll never be free
A thick, gray haze
Shrouds my view
Lost in a maze
That I'll never get through
And confusion ensures

Could I be dreaming
Is it all in my head
Could I be dreaming
Am I alive or am I dead

Fade to walk
With living ghosts
Unable to talk
A whisper at most
Whole control
Of those they employ
Collecting souls
Of the bodies destroyed
And I'm so paranoid

Could I be dreaming
Is it all in my head
Could I be dreaming
Am I alive or am I dead
As hard as I try to awake
I'm paralyzed until daybreak
If I am dreaming
Just let me sleep

I looked into the abyss and lost my way
And to the emptiness I yielded and obeyed
Don't try to tell me this is true
I won't believe the lies you spew
There's a feeling I can't shake
This is all a mistake

Could I be dreaming
Is it all in my head
Could I be dreaming
Am I alive or am I dead
As hard as I try to awake
I'm paralyzed until daybreak
If I am dreaming
Just let me sleep
