Red River: Music

Disquiet Dream

(Red River)
June 9, 2006
Music & Lyrics by Michelle Anderson; Arranged & Produced by David Anderson; All Instrumentaion by David Anderson; drums by Craig Larson

You got me runnin’

All over this countryside

Searchin’ high and wide

Like a bandit

Cut off and alone

 

A frantic scream

Insidious atropine

Burns my skin

As it breathes

 

Don’t make it real

Deliver me from this spare

Bad nightmare

Bring on the morning

Scary night

I can’t go through it alone

 

Tough as I fight

It holds on and won’t let go

A stranglehold

Of apprehension

The moon has turned black

 

Push through the weeds

A tangle of fear and mourn

A plea for dawn

Oh, set me free

 

And I’m mad

Can’t wake up

But when I do

The shadows laugh

It’s all the same

Scary night

That lasts a hideous day
