"Dark Reverie" lyrics - QUEENSRYCHE

If I leave
Would you wait for me?
If I fall
Would you pray for me?
And when I'm gone will they remember me
Or fade away into eternity?
Nothing lasts forever
I can't forget the past
I'm searching for the answers
Through the bottom of a glass
Now this empty road
I'm too weak to ride alone
I've come this far but have so far to go

[Chorus 1:]
Down
Down on me
And when it rains it pours
'Til we all fall down

Do the pictures on the wall
Mean anything at all?
Or just your selfish way
To cope with all the pain?
At night I hear the screams
Echo in my dreams
And when I've hit the ground
You kick me when I'm down

[Chorus 2:]
Down
Down on me (Down on me)
Drowning me (Drowning me)
No use in pretending like we've done before
Down
Down on me (Down on me)
My dark reverie
Nothing lasts forever, just revolving doors

[Bridge:]
(Take)
Take me away
Away from all the pain
Take me in his place
So far away
Away from empty streets
The streets I've only known
Only how to roam
Roam to the other side
So take, take me
Why don't you take me instead?
We all fall
We all hurt
We all bleed
We all fall
We all hurt
We all bleed

[Chorus 2:]
Down
Down on me (Down on me)
Drowning me (Drowning me)
No use in pretending like we've done before
Down
Down on me (Down on me)
My dark reverie
Nothing lasts forever, just revolving doors
