At Your Expense

i see this woman
in my dreams
when i am sleeping
she tells me everything's just fine
when i close my eyes to sleep
she's taking over control
i think it's gone on for too long
she says she knows how it's done
says "baby let me have my fun
at your expense"
she don't mean well
she drags my name through the mud
she's making money now
making money now
this dream
is not what it seems
i'm tossing and turning
wishing myself to sleep
and when she sings
it's so familiar to me
feel i've heard this before and
i've sacrificed all i should keep
but when i come to wake i
think in obscurities
i try to think of ways to
keep you away from me
cause you won't last
you'll come to pass
i just can't change
the man i have become
but now i can't sleep
and now she's haunting me
this dream
is not what it seems
i'm tossing and turning
wishing myself to sleep
she sings
so familiar to me
feel i've heard this before and
i've sacrificed all i should keep
now i'm asked to
be this man
i'll never want
i'll be desired
i'll change everything
i've ever been
for her i'm
under her reign
she tells me
just how to be
her fallacy
i've come to believe in
this dream
is not what it seems
i'm tossing and turning
wishing myself to sleep
she sings
so familiar to me
feel i've heard this before and
i've sacrificed all i should keep
i see this woman
in my dreams
when i am sleeping
she tells me everything's just fine.
