Nightmares With You
I'd rather have nightmares with you
than dreams with any other
I'd rather have minutes with you
than years with any other
I'd rather have conflict with you
than peace with any other
I'd rather have despair with you
than hope with any other
I'd rather have showers with you
than sun with any other
I'd rather have inches with you
than miles with any other
I'd rather have famine with you
than glut with any other
I'd rather have ounces with you
than tons with any other
I'd rather have sadness with you
than joy with any other
I'd rather have defeat with you
than win with any other
