I'm bleeding, it slowly swells It's easy to get into heaven It's harder to stay as it deludes the mind The clever deceit, the web of lies See it crumbling down right before your eyes Anything goes if you go with the flow yeah it looks alright Scratch the surface and hurt is all you'll find Is it a life worth living when nothing is real it seems Something's missing, a darkness hides behind the screen Requiem for a dream I'm bleeding, where is the end of this A world that's falling apart A shadow descending ever darker the days Sunk in too deep, a shallow face Now set in stone, the cold embrace Anything goes if you go with the flow make it look alright Scratch the surface and blood is all you'll find Life isn't too forgiving, in darkness even dreams will die The vicious circle, from which the fallen rarely rise Requiem tonight Requiem Oh dream on now
