Through the looking glass

I just wanted to close my eyes
Wake up and never be recognised
I just wanted to go to bed
Look at the thoughts swim in my head

I saw you through the looking glass
Knowing you'd be my first and last
I saw you see me, then walk my way
I pinched myself, then stayed awake

This isn't happening
I'm one who doesn't dream
Now I am fast asleep
Don't you wake me up, please

And when the light shines down
And picks me up from the ground
I'll still be right by your side
On those cold, lonely nights
