Same Old Nightmare

I'm having that same old nightmare.
I'm running through the sand...
I've reached the place where someone is...
They're reaching out their hand.

Just as I try to take it
they yank their hand away.
I try to hollar for some help
but there's nothing I can say.

I have no voice to yell with.
No words can be let out.
The tears are streaming down my face.
I'm fighting just to shout.

I need someone to save me
but that someone will not stay.
I have to force myself to stop...
just turn and walk away.
