Hell You Call A Dream Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've been invaded by the need to stay inside this cage
Day after day, I'm hurting, but I choose to stay this way

[Pre-Chorus]
Running out of things to say
Isn't it normal to love what we hate?
It's draining me out just the same
I'm in too deep

[Chorus]
Give me something to believe (Oh, oh)
In this hell you call a dream (Oh, oh)

Colliding every time
The chaos drives me wild like an animal
Just wanna breathe (Oh, oh)
In this hell you call a dream

[Verse 2]
My vision's blurry as the pain keeps crawling up my skin
The pressure's building and I'm on the verge of caving in

[Pre-Chorus]
Ready and out for the kill
If this can't bring me to life, then what will?
Suffering just for the thrill
I'm in too deep
[Chorus]
Give me something to believe (Oh, oh)
In this hell you call a dream (Oh, oh)
Colliding every time
The chaos drives me wild like an animal
Just wanna breathe (Oh, oh)
In this hell you call a dream

[Bridge]
Eyes are always open in the dark
I've been underwater right from the start
Rope is wearing thin, I can't take any more
More

[Chorus]
Give me something to believe (Oh, oh)
In this hell you call a dream (Oh, oh)
Colliding every time
The chaos drives me wild like an animal
Just wanna breathe (Oh, oh)
Maybe I don't wanna be (I don't wanna be)
(Oh, oh)
In this hell you call a dream (Oh, oh)
(Hell you call a dream)
Colliding every time
The chaos drives me wild like an animal
Just wanna breathe (Oh, oh)
In this hell you call a dream

What did The Warning say about "Hell You Call A Dream"?
Genius Answer

‘Hell You Call A Dream’ tries to express a feeling most musicians find hard to express. When you’re touring, you experience the positives, the negatives, and the whole spectrum of emotion all at once. It’s about how something you love so much can be something that also weighs you down, but you continue to do it out of love. It’s fulfilling, but it’s tiring.
