First, it could be about suffering from depression. There being so much pain and fear in her wake, she "surrenders to the sleep."
"So far or right beside me
So close but they can't find me
Slowly, time forgets me
I'm lonely, only dreaming"
When you're depressed, you have low energy and are always sleepy and such. As she sleeps more, her loved ones are out living without her and having fun, while slowly forgetting her. She's lost in her dreamland, but she didn't realize it.
cough cough That interpretation makes no sense...
It could also be about a person with, let's say, avoidant personality disorder. She's always spending time by herself, daydreaming, in her own little world. When she's with other people, she's anxious and scared. She drifts out of consciousness and spends her sleep in that same world that she's carefully constructed to suit her tastes.
In her world, she is immortal, so she doesn't have to feel scared.
I feel that this could have two meanings.
