Dream Lyrics
Crying eyes, broken bells
Back in course, no one tells
Down we go, wish me well
I don't know where we fell
Oh, I had a dream that you couldn't hear me screaming
Trying to tell you everything but it wouldn't stop you leaving
I wanna wake up where your love is
'Cause your love is always waking mine
I wanna break down where your heart gets
So torn it's almost breaking mine
I wanna lay here, lost and bitter
So long, I feel like I could die
I wanna tell you what my truth is
But it's buried down inside
Shining light, show and tell
Don't be scared, truth is hell
Down we go, wish me well
No one knows where we fell
Oh, I had a dream that you couldn't hear me screaming
Trying to tell you everything but it wouldn't stop you leaving
I wanna wake up where your love is
'Cause your love is always waking mine
I wanna break down where your heart gets
So torn it's almost breaking mine
I wanna lay here, lost and bitter
So long, I feel like I could die
I wanna tell you what my truth is
But it's buried down inside
They say that secrets make you sick and I should know
Just promise me that if I tell you you won't go
Oh, oh, oh
I wanna wake up where your love is
'Cause your love is always waking mine
I wanna break down where your heart gets
So torn it's almost breaking mine
I wanna lay here, lost and bitter
So long, I feel like I could die
I wanna tell you what my truth is
But it's buried down inside
It's buried down inside
Back in course, no one tells
Down we go, wish me well
I don't know where we fell
Trying to tell you everything but it wouldn't stop you leaving
'Cause your love is always waking mine
I wanna break down where your heart gets
So torn it's almost breaking mine
I wanna lay here, lost and bitter
So long, I feel like I could die
I wanna tell you what my truth is
But it's buried down inside
Don't be scared, truth is hell
Down we go, wish me well
No one knows where we fell
Trying to tell you everything but it wouldn't stop you leaving
'Cause your love is always waking mine
I wanna break down where your heart gets
So torn it's almost breaking mine
I wanna lay here, lost and bitter
So long, I feel like I could die
I wanna tell you what my truth is
But it's buried down inside
Just promise me that if I tell you you won't go
Oh, oh, oh
'Cause your love is always waking mine
I wanna break down where your heart gets
So torn it's almost breaking mine
I wanna lay here, lost and bitter
So long, I feel like I could die
I wanna tell you what my truth is
But it's buried down inside

She has a horrible, sad secret. She is worried that telling this person about it will drive them away. I think the climax makes better sense with, "tell me you won't go".
My interpretation is that this is about a relationship in which a partner is struggling greatly and is dreaming about his/her partner’s love, but continues to break down and get torn apart. He/she is going through something awful, possibly depression or anxiety, and they dream of the lightness and happiness of love, however, this is stunted by the evil that is constantly plaguing and tormenting him/her. It’s a beautiful song that I can’t stop listening to, and it really is a desperate search for comfort, solace and relief from love through agony and heartbreak.
