Nightmare

I'd be havin' nightmares
 If I could only sleep
 I'd give anything to see your face again
 My head wrapped in my pillow,
 I pray my soul to keep
 Well I'd be havin' nightmares
 If I could only sleep
 Now I'd be havin' nightmares
 If I could only sleep
 My heart beats like a crazed and captive animal
 The whiskey flows in rivers
 Where memories run deep
 Yeah, well I'd be havin' nightmares
 If I could only sleep
 I'd be havin' nightmares
 If I could only sleep
 Prisoner of conscience,
 I just walk the floor
 Well I'd think of bribin' angels,
 But angels don't come cheap
 Yeah I'd be havin' nightmares
 If I could only sleep
 Yeah I'd be havin' nightmares
 If I could only sleep
 The haunted eyes
 The vacant stare
 The constant scare
 Is always there
 The empty house
 The darkened street
 The haunted eyes lookin' back at me
