These nightmares
I’m falling in my sleep 
and I can’t fight myself from falling 
so elusively out of this dream
And I can’t help but scream 
I’m so lost in searching,
looking for you 
but I’ll be damned if I can find you
 [bad word] 
This is so much harder than it seems
These past few nights I can’t get you out of my dreams
 [bad word] 
(Shake me!) to the rhythm of our broken hearts
(Shake me!) You and me we are the only ones, only ones
Can’t count on anyone we’re all alone
(Shaken!) With the rhythm of our lonely hearts, lonely hearts

These nightmares
well they all have a theme
We get broken down in moments 
so helpless when I’m so far from you
And my muscles scream
I can’t stand when I can’t hold you nightly 
gripping my love for you tightly
 [bad word] 
This is so much harder than it seems
These past few nights I can’t get you out of my dreams
 [bad word] 
(Shake me!) to the rhythm of our broken hearts
(Shake me!) You and me we are the only ones, only ones
Can’t count on anyone we’re all alone
(Shaken!) with the rhythm of our lonely hearts, lonely hearts

[Bridge]
I just want you to know
I never asked you to understand
Please just think of what it means to me

I just want you to know
I never asked you to understand. 
Please just think of what it means to me

These nightmares
I’m falling in my sleep 
and I can’t fight myself from falling 
so elusively out of this dream
 [bad word] 
(Shake me!) to the rhythm of our broken hearts
(Shake me!) You and me we are the only ones, only ones
Can’t count on anyone, we’re all alone
(Shaken!) With the rhythm of our lonely hearts, lonely hearts
